Robin Parry is a Christian theologian particularly known for advocating Christian universalism (a school of Christian theology focused around the doctrine of universal reconciliation – the view that all human beings will ultimately be saved and restored to a right relationship with God). He has written on a range of subjects, including OT ethics, lament, ancient biblical cosmologies, the doctrine of election, and the relevance of orthodoxy, but is best-known for his book The Evangelical Universalist, which he wrote under the pseudonym Gregory MacDonald. His current research and writing is in the area of eco-theology.
Parry completed his PhD on Genesis 34 under the supervision of Gordon J. Wenham and Craig Bartholomew at the University of Gloucestershire. He was a sixth form college teacher in Worcester for eleven years, before starting work in publishing in 2001 for Paternoster Press and, since 2010, for Wipf & Stock Publishers (based in Eugene, Oregon). Robin is an Anglican priest in the Diocese of Worcester especially interested in eco-spirituality.
