Where should Christians go to heal the deep hurts in their hearts? Today’s search for inner fulfillment has exploded into the Recovery movement, complete with twelve-step seminars, counseling programs, and self-help books. Thousands are looking to Christian psychology to help them attain victory over modern dysfunctions. Does that mean the Bible alone is no longer adequate for the problems faced by Christians today? Some say we need the Bible plus psychology. Others say the Bible alone is sufficient. With deep insight and candor, pastoral counselor Ed Bulkley presents the opposing sides of this issue—and offers trustworthy, biblical answers for those who long to break away from pain and guilt and know true freedom...genuine inner peace...and a fresh beginning. The pressures to find the solutions to human hurt and suffering have never been greater. Clear answers are urgently needed for the hurting—today.

Positive psychology is about fostering strength and living well—about how to do a good job at being human. Charles Hackney connects this still-new movement to foundational concepts in philosophy and Christian theology. He then explores topics such as subjective states, cognitive processes, and the roles of personality, relationships, and environment.

"As disciplines, psychology and theology share an overlapping interest in the nature and functioning of human beings. This book provides an introduction to many of the worldview issues and philosophical foundations that frame the relationship of psychology and theology, includes scholarly reflection on the integration literature, and surveys five paradigms of possible relationships between psychology and Christianity. Questions at the end of each chapter are included to help readers evaluate both the material and their own burgeoning approach to integration. This book is ideal as a textbook for students of psychology and other behavioral and social sciences (social work, sociology, theology, counseling, pastoral counseling) at both the graduate and undergraduate level. It is also written for the broader readership of psychologists, counselors, pastors, and others who are interested in integration"--Publisher description.

"Christian Psychology"--an oxymoron?While prominent Christians embrace psychotheraphy,acclaimed secular psychologists acknowledge that it is, in fact, a religious practice under the guise of medical science:So common is the use of psychotherapy among Christians today that many pastors themselves are either licensed therapists or are the greatest source of referrals to professional counselors. In addition, the study of psychology has become the number two career choice for all college students; in fact, the popularity of this "science of the soul" is even greater among those enrolled in Christian colleges, universities, and seminaries from coast to coast.Some of the critical questions and crucial answers this book explores include:* From what ancient philosophical roots does psychology originate, and what are its modern fruits?* Is psychology truly a "scientific" means by which the spiritual issues of mankind may be addressed?* What does God's Word prescribe as a remedy for the social ills of our culture, and is that alone sufficient for the Body of Christ?* Can Christians effectively minister using Scripture and prayer by power of the Holy Spirit, or is professional training required?* Is it possible for believers in Christ to "eat the fish and spit out the bones" with regard to psychology's foundation in secular humanism?* Can the mystic and occultic methodologies employed by secular psychotherapists be "sanctified" for practice by Christian counselors?* Does the wisdom of psychology point to the narrow way of biblical Christianity, or toward the broad path that leads to destruction?* What understanding of "Self" can psychology bring to light that Scripture cannot?The purpose of this book is not to attack or condemn evangelicals who are either practicing psychotherapists or those who have been helped by what is commonly called "Christian Psychology." Rather, this volume acknowledges the value of believers bearing one another's burdens through prayer, fellowship, and the Word of God.
