Christian Psychology Institute co-founder Eric Johnson helps us to consider the rich resources we have as Christians as we do counseling and soul care. He discusses the history of modern psychology and how we’ve been trained not to factor our faith into it. He also cautions against neglecting the many rich insights available to us from the world of secular psychology.

Some Topics Covered:

1. Deploying Christian theological resources in psychological analysis and counseling
2. Comparing and contrasting Christian psychology to other approaches, such as biblical counseling, integration, and secular psychology
3. Examples of how to apply biblical concepts in therapy sessions
4. Challenges in Christian parenting and dealing with the lack of explicit scriptural guidance in this area
5. Resources at the Christian Psychology Institute for training counselors and pastors
