Book excerpt: A view of human nature generally undergirds approaches to mental health and flourishing. Spirituality is accepted by most cultures as an integral part of human nature and cannot be ignored when attempting to take care of our suffering and promoting flourishing. The onset of the COVID-19 pandemic in December 2019 caused worldwide shock and ripped at the very fabric of society. Everybody was affected by the threat of the illness and loss of lives. The disastrous economic impact is still felt in many parts of the world. In this book, a combination of Christian faith and scientific knowledge is presented as an answer to the question of human suffering. Individual and collective suffering are addressed by various articles and therapeutic models. The book further serves to deepen understanding of the value of spiritual knowledge and insight in therapy for both Christian and non-Christian therapists, in respect of both theory and practice. The content covers a wide range of topics, including collective suffering, individual suffering due to abuse, elements of Christian psychotherapy, the role of conscience and faith in healing, spiritual maturity, and a Christian view of identity in a digital age.

This book was released on 2018-12-07 with total page 327 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A view of human nature generally forms part of the assumptions that undergird psychological theories and psychotherapeutic approaches. In this book, Christian anthropology is articulated as a foundation for the theories, approaches and techniques applied in practice by its contributors. Various essays from European-based practitioners in the fields of psychology, psychotherapy and counselling are included here. These authors draw scientific knowledge from the fields of psychology and psychotherapy, focusing on intra-psychic aspects of human functioning, such as emotions, drives and cognitions, as well as interpersonal and eco-systemic functioning. In addition to this, the authors consider spirituality as an intrinsic part of humanity through which persons seek meaning and transcendence and that influences physical and mental health. Spiritual insight is gained from the field of theology with specific reference to the Christian faith tradition. As a wide range of topics, contexts and cultural and ecumenical backgrounds are covered in this book many practitioners in mental health care and counselling should benefit from the knowledge, ideas and practical experience shared here.

Book excerpt: Relational Integration of Psychology and Christian Theology offers an in-depth, interdisciplinary relational framework that integrates theology, psychology, and clinical and other applications. Building on existing models and debates about the relationship between psychology and theology, the authors provide a much-needed examination of the actual interpersonal dynamics of integration and its implications for training and clinical practice. Case studies from a variety of clinical and educational contexts illustrate and support the authors’ model of relational integration. Using an approach that is sensitive to theological diversity and to social context, this book puts forward a theological and therapeutic framework that values diversity, the repairing of ruptures, and collaboration.

He is at once stimulating and creative, historically thorough and futuristically insightful. I highly recommend any encounter with substantive material from his mind and pen." --Neil Clark Warren, Founder and Chairman, eHarmony.com; former dean, School of Psychology, Fuller Theological Seminary "Newton Malony is an internationally recognized pioneer in the application of religious principles to clinical practice and research. He is capable, like few others, of bridging professional differences and arriving at reasonable conclusions." --Allen E. Bergin, Professor of Psychology, retired; coauthor, Spiritual Strategy for Counseling and Psychotherapy "For Newton Malony, psychology exists in the service of religion. With the histories of the Christian church and psychology as his backdrop, Malony holds fast to his religious values throughout this book, making a case for the relevance of Christianity to a broad range of issues in clinical psychology." --Gordon Nagayama-Hall, Professor of Psychology, University of Oregon; author, Multicultural Psychology "Newton Malony was a major force in reinventing the psychology of religion during the second half of the twentieth century. This book highlights his contribution to clinical psychology in Christian context. Malony's ideas go a long distance and this book is a wonderful collection and culmination of them." --Raymond F. Paloutzian, editor, International Journal for the Psychology of Religion; coeditor, Handbook of the Psychology of Religion and Spirituality "This excellent collection of Malony's contributions to the integration of Christian faith and clinical psychology provides a rich and indispensable resource for scholars and students interested in psychology and the religious quest. Writing over many years about complex matters of emotional health and spiritual life, he has given us a gift that is accessible, enjoyable and deeply relevant." --Winston E. Gooden, dean, School of Psychology, Fuller Theological Seminary "What a treat it is to recommend this really solid collection that represents more than four decades of creative engagement with key issues in applied and professional psychology, effective ministry in the context of the local church, and some really fascinating musings by a senior spokesperson in the field." --Richard Butman, Professor of Psychology, Wheaton College; coeditor, Modern Psychotherapies: A Christian Appraisal

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today's psychology with increasing openness to spirituality, multiple ways of knowing, cultural diversity, and community emphases and provides a promising context for studying Christian communities. And today's church with increasing reliance on technology and science, growing engagement with contemporary culture, and a willingness to elevate various Christian psychologists to a near-prophetic role may be more open to the influence of psychology than ever before. This book highlights exemplars who are blending the strengths of the church with the skills of psychology in applied settings to promote psychology and spiritual health. The volume is divided into five sections. The first section includes three survey and interview studies assessing psychologists' and clergy perspectives on collaboration. Each of remaining sections is comprised of three to six vignettes demonstrating how psychologists are working with the church, organised by congregation-based collaboration, clinically-focused collaboration, research-focused collaboration, and community-focused collaboration.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Theory of Christian Psychology comes from the worldview that sees humanity as the object of a love relationship with Jesus Christ. Parallel to Buddhist forms of Psychology, The Theory of Christian Psychology meets the worldwide Christian population need for its own Psychology. The Theory of Christian Psychology presents a flexible foundation, addressing personality with full humanity dimension, integrating principles of clinical psychology found in Psychoanalytic Psychodynamic Psychology. Soundly Biblical and non-denominational it focuses on key precepts that bind Christianity together. The Theory of Christian Psychology bridges clinical psychology and theology in an intersection of power accessibility. "Psychology has been culture alien to Christianity. I have been asked to leave churches who only need God' when they discovered I was a psychologist, and criticized by others, who only need psychology.' Sound psychological principles are inherent throughout the Bible. There is no dichotomy necessary. We just need to speak the same language to clearly see the intersection." Issues addressed in The Theory of Christian Psychology carry relevancy for law and education. Her fi rst book, Dr. Klostreich plans to continue to write and speak. She is initiating The Institute for Christian Psychology to offer seminars, training, certification and ongoing research.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Religion has had notable and renewed prominence in contemporary public and political life. Religious questions have also been freshly examined in philosophy and theology, the natural sciences, the social sciences, psychology, phenomenology, politics and the arts. These fields reflect complex, multi-disciplinary understandings of religion, some hostile, some accommodating. For religious education this has all contributed to its own international renaissance. Religious education, in ensuring it is contemporary, shares with these fields the same criticality, the same distance between the study of religion and the religious life. Yet what are the grounds of this modern religious education? Through a systematic historical and contemporary cross-disciplinary analysis, answering this question is the ambitious task of the book. Chapters include: philosophy, theology and religious education the natural sciences and religious education the social sciences and religious education psychology, spirituality and religious education phenomenology and religious education the politics of religious education the aesthetics of religious education. The central problem of all modern religious education remains this: what are the grounds of religious education when religious education is no longer grounded in the religious life, in the life of the holy? Although this primarily appears to be an epistemological problem, it soon becomes a moral and existential one. The book will be of key interest to teachers, theorists and researchers working in religious education.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study builds the theoretical basis for Christian Psychology. A review of the fields of psychology, science and culture are all shown to call for the development of Christian Psychology. the third and fourth psychologies, Existential-humanistic, and Transpersonal are based on Eastern spirituality that is in opposition to Christianity, creating inherent presuppositional conflicts that compromise clinician and patient who hold personal Christian belief/values. the existence and critical nature of persuppositions is addressed. the convergence of a Biblical Worldview and the current Age of Interrelatedness are discussed as is the status of Christianity as a World Religion. Christanity is defined, professional psychoanalytic psychodynamic psychology is defined. the concept of Christianity as a Culture, distinctly separate from the church is introduced. Christian Culture is defined as spanning time, age, culture, race, gender, nation, language and creed, and is shown to have significant positive effects upon population demographics. Proof of the presence and effects of evil and miracles as they impact theory and treatment are discussed through historical literature. the Theory of Christian Psychology takes contemporary Psychoanalytic Object Relations Psychodynamic Psychotherapy and together with Christianity whose foundation is a Biblical Worldview as seen reflected in the Culture of Christianity, interprets each into the language of the other, demonstrating their convergence. With paradigm shifts and theory extention, the two become a powerful theory/therapy that shortens treatment time and creates deep, enduring healing. the work adds to Object Relations theory for Christian Psychology presenting an Interdiagnostic Continuum and a related sequential Psychological Developmental Stages of Attachment seen as a design of normalcy processes, placed within a multi-dimensional definition of the relational environment. Together this is seen as reflecting the heart of God and Object Relations theory, merged as Christian Psychology.
