This new book may be of interest, Theopoetic Folds: Philosophizing Multifariousness. It includes chapters by Caputo, Keller, Faber and Thatamanil. Here is a free Google book preview. Here's a chapter from the book, "Towards the Heraldic." An excerpt of the abstract:
"The first task of this chapter is to detail the qualities of a
theological position identified as 'monorthodox,' articulating how it
forms a worldview that is impositionally singular, rigid, and
totalizing. This position is then critiqued and an alternative approach
is developed as a corrective for it by means of an engagement with John
Howard Yoder’s work in missiology and articulations of theopoetics and
religious imagination as voiced by Stanley Hopper and Amos Wilder. This
corrective position is termed a 'Heraldic' theology, and is marked by
gestures of invitation, space-making, and manifoldedness, without an
abandonment of truth claims. Arguments from this position recognize that
the expression of a transformational experience of the Divine will be
necessarily multiplicitous and communally developed: they challenge
proponents of a monorthodox worldview that demand acquiescence, without,
in turn, imposing a perspective others must maintain."
From a review by Becoming Integral:
"The piece by Faber presents an 'eco-theopoetics' that synthesizes
Whitehead and Deleuze in a radical affirmation of wild multiplicity
after the 'ecological death of God.' Moreover, 'wild' does not refer to
any identity or opposition of nature or culture, but is about the
necessity of our constitutive contingency in the chaosmos. Nature and
humanity are put back in their place (khora), becoming 'eco-nature' and 'becoming intermezzo.'"
