Taking the Word to Heart: Self and Other in an Age of Therapies

by Robert C. Roberts

On This Page

Description

A proposal for a Christian psychology that draws on a Biblical critique of several popular psychologies. Psychology has invaded the Christian Church. While the imprint of modern psychology on Christians is not all bad, it can sometimes contradict and even displace true Christianity. Roberts offers a critical examination of several influential psychologies and compares their virtues with Christian virtues.

I found much value in Roberts's reflections. His thoughts will provide religious and mental health professionals much food for thought.
