Another School to add to your list.
Burk Parson author of: John Calvin: A Heart for Devotion, Doctrine, and Doxology
Is a graduate of Trinity College of Florida. Founded by the C&MA they are officially non-denominational. Much if not all of the administration are Christian and Missionary Alliance. Most of the teachers are from a broad range of charismatic, and cessationistic churches, from arminians to amyraldians, to reformed baptists, to (only one adjunct) Presbyterian.
Their most notable alum is Billy Graham back when their name was the "Florida Bible Institute".

As I understand it, Baptist successionism sprung out of Landmarkism, it may have grown beyond that. In any case the authors on the Baptist Successionism page are also in my professors notes as Landmarkers. Landmarkers were a subset of the SBC, some withdrew. The SBC may be worth being a denom stream of its own as there have been many spin offs and new denominations seeded by internal controversy.According to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baptist_successionism, "It is now identified primarily with Landmarkism, though not exclusively so." By this I understand that they are not the same and would need separate categories. If you have very clear lists of authors available in Logos for each (e.g. Is J M Carroll a Logos author?), and the lists are of a reasonable length, preferably with evidence that can be checked on the web, then I can add them to the spreadsheet. The Landmarkists should be people who definitely were not in, or withdrew from, the SBC and were in an independent tradition.
Hope that's clear and helpful. I'm grateful for the work you put into this, abondservant.
As logos expands its baptist coverage a number of these authors are coming into pre-pub and CP. I will determine just exactly who is and isn't. Though I think all of them ought to be included to save from having to re-trace our steps later. I understand if thats outside the scope.L2 lvl4 (...) WORDsearch, all the way through L10,

Perhaps denominational designations are not as useful as they once were given the broad spectrum of beliefs within denominations. For example, as a conservative Lutheran, I am theologically closer to a conservative Baptist than I am to a liberal Lutheran. Maybe just tag resources as being conservative or liberal.

The problem is that who I (as a reformed baptist) see as liberal is going to be different than who a campbelite sees as liberal, will be different than who you see as liberal, and a Presbyterian may think were all liberal.Perhaps denominational designations are not as useful as they once were given the broad spectrum of beliefs within denominations. For example, as a conservative Lutheran, I am theologically closer to a conservative Baptist than I am to a liberal Lutheran. Maybe just tag resources as being conservative or liberal.
Conservative seems to be the term one uses to describe their own position, liberal - the people to ones left, and fundamentalists are possibly more conservative still.L2 lvl4 (...) WORDsearch, all the way through L10,

I just found misspellings in Pauline Prison Epistles, Pauline Epistles, and a couple others with respect to Colossians and Philippians (and probably others).
I'm not sure whether this is a criticism of anything in this project, Charley. If so, please could you be more specific and I'll be sure to make the corrections? Thanks for the input.
As you see I only drop by once in awhile. My comment is NOT a negative criticism. If olny my tpinyg was good... heheh. Going through "mytags" at my site recently I found my own typos, so I cannot "cast the first stone." Other than the generalities I posted above I cannot recall specifically the others but Pauline Prison Epistles collection and Pauline Epistles collection had those two proper nouns misspelled. They may have been corrected by now.
God bless

We focus on Theology, denominational, and meta-denominational groupings. Your commentary collections must have come from another project.

If I understand Dr Wootten's question correctly, the way to deal with typos is to Highlight the offending sentence/passage, Right Click on it, when the window opens scroll down in the search panel to find Report Typo, Click on that. A new window opens showing the offending passage, make the needed changes in the second version of the passage and explain your change if that is necessary. Submit your Typo correction.
You will get an automatic response.
Changes are logged and dealt with when there is enough to justify an update of the book.

Howdy, Dr. Menton!
I don't know if you remember me...I used to be the Division Chair for Natural Sciences at Missouri Baptist University back in the '90s. I appeared on a few panels with you on Creationism issues. Glad to see you here!! I have no idea how to send IMs on this thing, or I would.
Hope to visit with you soon!

The latest edition of the spreadsheet is: 5466.Denominations and Theology 09 November 2014.zip
The reference guide is here: 1641.Theology and Denomination Tag Reference.doc
Sadly, there has been little time for me to add many new authors from my own research, but I think I have added all of the suggestions so far from crowdsourcing. Feel free to make suggestions, corrections, etc. and I'll try to add them as soon as I can. Thanks to Logos and Ray Deck III for mentioning us on the blog again (https://blog.logos.com/2014/11/4-faithlife-groups-you-should-join-today/). The Faithlife Group (https://faithlife.com/logos-library-theology-denomination-tags/about) is now up to 835 members.
Hey thanks for that. That might come in handy one day.

June Hunt - Southern Baptist. I suspect she is also Arminian because she was mentored by W. A. Criswell who is a southern baptist and Arminian. Plus she attended Southern Methodist University - which would of course be Arminian.

He's also a Sabatarian. Not sure if we want to track that or not... But it came up in the wikipedia article.Thanks for all the support, abondservant. If you can come up with long, reliable, well-documented lists of Sabbatarians, feminists or Landmarkians, I'm up for adding them. Just because someone went to a particular college isn't usually enough, so I haven't added Arminian for June Hunt or Reformed for Dan Allender. I think they would need stronger evidence, though I did add Dan Allender as an Evangelical, as he founded an Evangelical School of Theology. Feel free to come back to me on this, and keep the suggestions coming. Thanks again.

Hi Andrew, I went out to the Faithife group to update my copies of your files, and every one you posted in the last couple of hours says "my copy is up to date". I don't see how that could be as I have not gone out there in the months since your last update. Did the proper files go out there, or did I do something wrong?
Thanks,
Don

Thanks, Don, or maybe that should be apologies. It's been a while and I forgot I had to update every single collection at https://documents.logos.com/. It's a little tedious, so if anyone knows a better way, feel free to pass it on. Let me know if they're still not updated, as they should be by now.
Thanks again for the prompt.

Thanks, as always abs.
Firstly, on Criswell. I think I accept that he self-identified as a Calvinist. The sermon cited had him say it in 1955. The sermon at http://www.wacriswell.com/transcript/?thisid=41F4D67B-A55F-46DC-9C439F2D915FACBB had him say it again in 1987. If there's any evidence that he self-identified as Arminian, or even not-Calvinist, I'll happily change it.
Secondly, on June Hunt, apologies. I must have assumed she already was marked as Southern Baptist for some reason. I've changed it for the next release.

I've added a new collection, called Theology: Liberation, as per the request here: https://faithlife.com/logos-library-theology-denomination-tags/topics/1375. The rule at the moment is: Author:("Chaves, João B", "De La Torre, Miguel A.", "Fiorenza, Elisabeth Schussler", "Harris, James H.", "Moltmann, Jürgen", "Ruether, Rosemary Ruether", "Trible, Phyllis")
Please let me know any suggestions for amendments or additions. Remember the authors should be available in Logos, and please provide evidence if possible.

I'm not sure James H. Harris is a liberation theologian himself or just someone writing about it. His bio would lead me to conclude the latter.
I don't know whether everything by Moltmann counts as liberation theology. He was a German Reformed theologian. He is included in lists of liberation theologians for his "own form of liberation theology predicated on the view that God suffers with humanity, while also promising humanity a better future through the hope of the Resurrection, which he has labelled a 'theology of hope'." But he wrote other stuff too that isn't specifically liberation theology, on the trinity, etc. Only someone well versed in his work would be able to separate out the true liberation theology works.
If Logos carried them, several major liberation theologian authors who should be in such a list would be Leonardo Boff, Gustavo Gutiérrez, and Segundo Galilea. There is also a long list at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liberation_theology#Theologians. I haven't checked the whole list to see if Logos carries other authors on it. I'd question Henri Nouwen being on the list. Though he was certainly influenced by liberation theology, most of what he wrote would not fall in that category. Their list is also missing Segundo Galilea (probably because there is no English Wikipedia page for him, but there is a Spanish one).
Note that the Wikipedia list does not include Elisabeth Schussler Fiorenza, Rosemary Ruether Ruether, or Phyllis Trible. Liberation Theology unqualified generally refers to the Latin American variety. Though feminist theology is a kind of liberation theology, it is usually considered its own separate strand and I would not expect to find those authors in a collection of Liberation Theology.
There are a few other titles I'd add to such a collection, but they are probably not by authors who would be considered liberation theologians themselves, probably merely people writing about liberation theology. They could be added (without including anything else unwanted) by appending OR (Title:liberation AND Title:theology) to your rule. That wouldn't pick up the James H. Harris book (which definitely should be in the collection), but it could be added by title OR ("Preaching Liberation").

Thanks for the response, Rosie. Apologies it has taken so long to respond.
You may be right about James Harris. Before adding him, I had a quick flick through one of his books (as far as one can flick through an electronic book). I think lines like:
"My context for the practice of ministry is the African American church, which means that this book is culture-based; however, it is not simply a “me-too” effort to discuss oppression and injustice, but an effort to develop a liberation and transformation homiletic that uses the black church experience vis-à-vis Scripture as the foundation for addressing the reality of oppression while simultaneously explicating a methodology that has applicability for all—black, white, red, yellow, and others—who endeavor to preach the gospel." (p.vii, Harris, J.H., 1995. Preaching Liberation, Minneapolis, MN: Fortress Press.)
suggested that he may be an actual liberation theologian, but I'm happy to remove him from the list if anyone knows better.
I've added codes to the spreadsheet, using the Liberation column, so that it can be filtered for a particular type of Liberation Theology. The codes, as listed on the notes sheet, are: L - Liberation; LA - Liberation (Latin America); LB - Liberation (Black); LF - Liberation (Feminist).
As these collections are listing authors who identify with the listed denominations, categories and theologies, I'll leave others to create collections about particular theologies. Thanks for the suggestions.
I think I went through the Wikipedia list, checking it against authors actually available in Logos at the time. However, if anyone notices that I've missed anything or if Logos has since added an author, then please let me know.

Ah yes, I think you're right. He is writing as a black theologian himself. I hadn't picked up on the name Harris as being likely to belong to an African American (since all the Harrises I know are white), but here's a photo of him: https://www.pinterest.com/pin/463448617876653886/

Sir Bondservant,
I prefer to abide the tie that binds and Not to seek out divisiveness, as I am not so sure that Christ has all believers divided up according to denominational or geographic groups of ins and outs. However I do abide, evangelacalism, The WCF, not so sure about the NPP movement,( I know NTW is a heckuva lot more edified than I am, but not so sure that matters to God as much as the walk, I attempt to maintain). I suppose you might call me a Calvinist, too, I think sprinkling is probably as efficacious as dunking, although I was happy for my daughter to be dunked, per her preference. It seems to amount to a difference tantamount to Gluten free crackers standing in for Christ's body in a trans-substitutionary manner. I wasn't around when Paul or his "amaneuses" penned the Epistles, nor do I know what he thought or what the Lord revealed to him.. I do know I am a human sinner, and cannot pass efficacious judgement on another soul, though. I have a bodacious collection of books cherry picked over a period of years, (Including inserts of my own.My package is probably overwhelmingly reformed and Judaical, however regarding Postmodernity, I have avoided the acquisition of much of the Academic nonsense that seems to be a human problem. I am happy to share and serve appropriately, but will not engage in polemic if I can avoid it. I am thoroughly familiar with Matthew 18, and have significant difficulty with trying to force dispensational "covenants" that are a fiction of the last 200 years, down people's craw.That being said, I would be delighted to help if we treat each other as brothers and do not find ourselves looking for exclusionary minutiae. On the other hand, if it is not in the 2 Tim 3:16, God Breathed scriptures, ESV, ASB, NASB.NKJV, RSV, NRSV, Lexham Discourse, Masoretic Hebrew BHS or BHWm,Wycliffe,etc. or has to be tied to the Vulgate for it to be acceptable, I don't really wanna play.Further, I have little use for LDS, and NWT Bibles, as they have violated the last book of John.(as does the original KJV, Vulgate, Papal Bulls and the Scofield,J. Hayford, Olsteen, Publicattions/ I would rather look art ways to increase a commonly purposed Brotherhood (including Brilliant Women), without feeling the need to satisfy the masses in order to be politically correct. Currently, I feel that the two are mutually exclusive. Actually, that leaves a boatload of common ground, hence,polemicism is generally divisive unless it reaches deep. Feminism, for example depends, Are we talking about 2 Cor, or 2 Tim. ? If so, I would hope that the person objecting is facile in Koine Greek, and is not a hot head.who demands to have his or her way. That person is not a Bondservant or a colleague who seeks a United Ecclesial Bride for The King, Jesus Christ, our Savior.If I am in error I pray to be corrected. I do wish to help.
Sincerely,
David J Cadenhead MD MEd, (MDiv.)

Firstly I don't understand why I have been singled out. Its not my thread, I just happened to be the last person to post in it.
Secondly, I hope the "hot head who demands to have his or her way" line isn't directed at me because if so, it lies in stark contrast to your claim to desire unity.
Thirdly, the point of this thread is not to cause division, rather, its purpose is to help find hand holds whereupon those who are studying can know at a glance what bias the writer is going to have.
Finally, may you be richly blessed by our Lord and Savior.L2 lvl4 (...) WORDsearch, all the way through L10,
