Psychopathology, Sin, and the DSM
In this article, the Judeo-Christian view of sin is reviewed as well as the psychoanalytic and humanistic views of psychopathology. All three perspectives converge in their assumption of a universally flawed human condition. Conversely, the behavioral and symptom oriented phenotypal description of psychopathology found in the DSM diverges from the Judeo-Christian theological tradition. Inconsistencies and inherent difficulties are noted in the li…

Christianity and Psychoanalysis
The concept of original sin has been considered from many different perspectives. The primary question for Christian psychologists is, “How does original sin manifest itself in the human psyche?” Vitz and Gartner (1984) provocatively argued for a psychoanalytic understanding of original sin as grounded in the oedipal complex, and that Jesus, the remedy for sin, embodies an anti-Oedipus stance. This article critically examines their theory and pre…
Narcissus Precedes Oedipus
The authors briefly respond to Vitz and Gartner's reply to their article, “Christianity and Psychoanalysis: Original Sin–Oedipal or Preoedipal?”, and focus specifically on three of the larger issues raised
The Prediction of Success in a Clinical Psychology Graduate Program
One hundred ninety-two students at an APA approved doctoral program in clinical psychology were examined with regard to the relationships between admissions criteria and evaluation of performance within the graduate program. Predictors for the study included GRE scores, UGPA, MMPI scores, indices from the SVIB, indices from Letters of Recommendation, and Biographical/Educational information. Performance criteria included Graduate GPA, Preliminary…
Loneliness, Marital Adjustment and Burnout in Pastoral and Lay Persons
The present study assessed the quality of life for pastors and pastors’ wives by comparing the quality of life they reported with that reported by non-pastoral males and females within the same denomination. Loneliness, marital adjustment and vocational burnout were used as the indices of the quality of life as measured by the Revised UCLA Loneliness Scale, the Dyadic Adjustment Scale and the Maslach Burnout Inventory. Responses from 189 subjects…

Towards A Biblical Model of Counseling
This article attempts to develop a model of counseling which is biblical in structure and which is contrasted to two inadequate alternatives. The model is developed for the Scriptures' description of the Flesh and the Spirit and centers on therapeutic relationship as expressed in six dimensions: goal setting, source of value, locus of responsibility, focus on cognition/feeling/behavior, style of therapy, and duration of therapy
Secular and Sacred Models of Psychology and Religion
Religion has been viewed with varying degrees of favor or disfavor by psychology. Early in psychology's history, Freud was critical of religion; many Christians reacted with equal disfavor to psychology. More recently, Christians have attempted to articulate the relationship between psychology and Christianity. These attempts have followed the same four approaches or models that psychologists traditionally have taken toward religion. The purpose …
The Nature and Scope of Integration
A model for the total integration of psychology and theology based on seven common areas is outlined. The common areas are: Theology Proper-Science of Psychology, Anthropology-Personality, Hamartiology-Pathology, Christology-Counselor, Soteriology-Growth, Ecclesiology-Social Psychology, Eschatology-Hope, and Expectation and Purpose. The difference between psychology and theology in terms of level of explanation, locus of explanation and epistomol…
Nouthetic Counseling Defended
This paper is to reply to Ganz's critique of Carter's (1975a) analysis of Adams’ theory of Nouthetic Counseling. It begins with a further analysis of Adams’ thoughts. Several weaknesses were noted in Adams thought: omission of central biblical concepts, rejection of common grace, a theologically inadequate view of the fall, uncritically using psychological concepts yet claiming to be exclusively biblical, ignoring psychology as phenomena and a rh…
Adams’ Theory of Nouthetic Counseling
Adams’ theory of nouthetic counseling was analyzed with reference to the nature of man, view of pathology, the counseling model, the counseling process, and the counselor and his techniques. Biblically, Adams’ theory is found to be inadequate. It views man almost entirely in behavioral terms and fails to incorporate such biblical concepts as heart, soul, spirit, and flesh. Adams also fails to provide a biblical basis for building his theory aroun…
Maturity
Five dimensions of maturity are outlined and described: having a realistic view of oneself and others, accepting oneself and others, living in the present but having long range goals, having values and developing one's abilities and coping with daily living. A parallel description of biblical maturity is also made on these dimensions, but differences in content are noted. Psychological maturity is grounded in the image of God in man as created bu…
The Psychology of Gothard and Basic Youth Conflicts Seminar
The structure of Gothard's thought as it is outlined in the Seminar on Basic Youth Conflicts and the “red notebook” was analyzed. The analysis focused on three categories which are related to psychology: the nature of man, theory of pathology and theory of therapy. The strengths and weaknesses of Gothard's system of thought is evaluated from a biblical perspective since this is his chosen frame of reference. it was concluded that Gothard has deve…
Personality and Christian Maturity
An analysis of Rogers', Gendlin's and Jung's theory of personality revealed that the processes of actualization and congruence are common to all three theorists. The same two processes are fundamental to the Scripture's discussion of Christian maturity. These two processes are described as forming a model of personality and Christian maturity in which the processes in these two spheres are the same but the contents are different. The similarities…
