John Culp’s early experiences with Christianity and God took place in a broadly Wesleyan context which has provided a basis for his continuing philosophical reflection on faith.  A commitment to doing God’s will lead him to college, seminary, and a masters program prior to teaching at Bethel College in Indiana.  That experience convinced Culp of his need to do doctoral study.  Claremont offered him an interdisciplinary program, involving philosophy and religion, and John Cobb’s development of Process thought provided an intriguing approach to understanding God’s relationship to the world.  Coaching soccer for many years challenged Culp to communicate with non-philosophers and facilitated his teaching of philosophy and interdisciplinary courses.  He is currently Professor of Philosophy, Division of Religion and Philosophy, at Azusa Pacific University. He specializes and has published in the areas of philosophy of religion and Wesleyan theology. Culp has a growing conviction of the importance of human activity for God.  That conviction has been expressed through utilizing process thought to develop a contemporary Wesleyan response to modern and postmodern thought.  Reading Postmodern thinkers has stimulated his thinking by providing another way of pointing to the importance of God and human activity for God.
