The Bible and Psychology
"Psychology gets into trouble, from a Seventh-day Adventist (SDA) viewpoint, when it attempts to explain why humans develop and change as they do. Evolution undergirds the focus of mainstream psychology. The sin problem does not figure in any explanations for behavior or human development. Neither does the need for a Savior who might renew an individual's mind enter into discussions of behavior change or therapy for psychological problems. Thus, the Christian psychologist senses a need to integrate his or her knowledge from psychology and from theology. How do they fit together?"
This paper was presented at the 26th Institute of Christian Teaching.
