Description
Understanding the relationship between psychology and Christianity can be a complex issue. This book presents five distinct models for exploring the intersection of these two fields, each offering a unique perspective on how to approach the discipline of psychology from a Christian standpoint. The contributors to this volume, including experts such as David Powlison, David G. Myers, and Robert C. Roberts, present their views on the levels-of-explanation model, the biblical counseling model, the integration model, and others. Each author responds to the others, highlighting areas of agreement and disagreement, and providing a nuanced exploration of the strengths and weaknesses of each approach. With a revised introduction and conclusion, Eric L. Johnson provides a comprehensive framework for understanding the diverse perspectives on psychology and Christianity, making this book an essential resource for students and scholars of Christian psychology.
