Manage episode 403259691 series 1413243
You’re listening to Search the Scriptures Daily, a program in which we encourage everyone who desires to know God’s truth to look to God’s Word for all that is essential for salvation and living one’s life in a way that is pleasing to Him.In this first segment of our program Dave and I are discussing the topic of Psychology and the Church, a subject we have written about rather extensively we’ve also produced an hour-long DVD titled, Psychology and the Church, Critical Questions, Crucial Answers. Furthermore, we’re in the process of putting together a book that will be a collection of the many articles we’ve written dealing with psychology.The Lord willing, it will be off the press late this spring.Dave, I’d like to pick up where we left off last week and for those who didn’t have a chance to see or hear our program, we’re talking in general about psychology and we identified that as psychological counseling or psychotherapy.Basically, the mode of psychotherapy is conversation.People talk, people listen, and they deal with issues of life.So Dave, as we stated last week, the evangelical church—I’m talking about the conservative, Bible-believing church is so heavily into psychological counseling that it’s really astonishing.And the reason it’s astonishing, as we pointed out last week, is that the concepts of psychotherapy that man is innately good, that self is the solution to man’s problems, these are antithetical to what the Bible teaches.
