A text written in conversational style, designed to look at what the Bible says about psychological topics such as: personality, the mind/brain connection, states of consciousness, self-esteem, etc. Because psychology deals with the psychological/spiritual part of man, the Bible has much to say about it. Given that God created the mind and behavior (which is the basis of psychology) it only behooves us to study this realm of man that reflects God. Loaded with hundreds of Scripture references, the in-depth look at what the Bible says about thinking and behavior helps build a basis for studying psychology. The book begins with presuppositions, moves to a definition of what "integration" means to the author, and then provides insight for a Christian perspective of the psychological makeup of man. All of this is intended to set the foundation for Christian psychological study. The book then weighs in on certain psychological topics and runs those teachings through a "biblical grid."

"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.

Theological Foundations is designed to give the reader an understanding of a biblical theory of personality. That theory provides a set of "lenses" through which the biblical counselor can look as he/she works with clients. The book begins with presuppositions and a theory of integration which are followed by a description of 7 capacities that make up a theory of personality. The first 2 capacities provide a theory of motivation that help the counselor know what drives people. Tips for counseling are given throughout the book pertaining to each of the capacities described.

It has become common knowledge that Christianity in America is in a psychological crisis. As the answers to our problems are continuously being expressed by external remedies such as addiction programs, self-help teachings, ministry adventures, 100 ways to…, the average state of the inner Christian (1st Tim. 4:8) is starving. The mind was so relevant in the time of Christ that surprisingly one-fourth of the New Testament directly or indirectly refers to it in some way. Biblical Psychology brings the human mind out of the shadows and into the forefront of contextual and hermeneutical criticism. Although it is believed that the mind is the most powerful machine in the world, we find in Biblical Psychology that it is impossible to tap into its energy without properly understanding the purposes of its intellectual properties: attention, conscience, emotion, heart, imagination, knowledge, memory, opinions, perception, reason, understanding, and thought. • What is logic? How do I use my logic and reasoning for good? • What is my conscience? How do I keep a good conscience? • What is the purpose of my memory? How do I delete bad files from my mind’s memory and upload the right files? • How can I get control of my out-of-control mind? • Do my feelings ever lie? Can I trust my feelings? • In what part of the mind does depression exist, and can I beat it without medication? • What is the purpose of knowledge? • How do I know if my perception is right or wrong? • What is the purpose of my imagination? • What is the most practical way to have a positive attitude? • How do I overcome my addictive behavior, fear, inferiority complex, negativity, etc.? Not only does Biblical Psychology provide answers to the previous questions, but will bring to the table the mind’s great riddles: what it is, how it works, what its safeguards are, and how to use it rightly. Finally, we will discover that the mental logistics found within the Bible are the answer to the Christian’s reformation (Rom. 12:1-2) and the secret to obtaining an identifiable power from God (2nd Tim. 1:7) in the inner man. A Must for Everyone!
