Integrating Psychology and Faith: Models for Christian Engagement Paperback - 2023

From the rear cover

"A particularly fresh, engaging, and accessible exploration"

This book helps readers understand the range of options for integrating faith and psychology, allowing them to explore where various views fit on a continuum of approaches to integration and to understand the perspectives of other Christians in the field of psychology.

"Kudos to Paul Moes and Blake Riek for gifting students with a big-idea book--a lucid synopsis of the philosophical, psychological, and theological perspectives that frame our thinking about psychology and faith. Read this, and you will better understand your own worldview."
--David G. Myers, Hope College, coauthor of Psychology; author of A Friendly Letter to Skeptics and Atheists: Musings on Why God Is Good and Faith Isn't Evil

"A particularly fresh, engaging, and accessible exploration of how to thoughtfully and humbly engage psychological research and practice. The writing is crisp, and the text is focused and brief without sacrificing nuance. Rather than being prescriptive or preachy, the authors address the strengths and weaknesses of multiple perspectives, encouraging readers to think for themselves and giving them the tools to do so. I would readily use this book to engage all my students, including those from other faith traditions or none."
--Heather Looy, The King's University

"This is a brief, succinct, and well-written introduction to the major models and worldviews for the integration of Christian faith and psychology. It covers philosophical foundations or worldviews related to natural science, human nature, contemporary psychology and religion, and models of integration in a helpful and clear way. Highly recommended!"
--Siang-Yang Tan, Fuller Theological Seminary; author of Counseling and Psychotherapy: A Christian Perspective
