Lindbeck's «experiential - expressivist» model does a reasonably good job
of accounting for the romantic and mystical
streams of liberal theology, but it does not account for variants
of liberal theology that make gospel - centered claims (such as the tradition
of evangelical» liberalism), that base their
affirmations on metaphysical arguments (such as the Whiteheadian process school) or that appeal to gospel norms and metaphysical arguments (such as the Boston personalist school).
