Psychology and Theology Intergrated -UNITY

 An attempt to integrate Psychology and Theology is a daunting task because of the divergent approaches of these academic disciplines.  We need to be aware of psychologists’ underlying assumptions, including ethical and metaphysical assumptions, critiquing those assumptions.

Your thoughts and beliefs determine your reality. The problem of integration is this: To integrate Christianity with Psychology one has to convert or reduce biblical wisdom (mind of Christ) to Theology, or a theory about the basis and purpose of living. But the Bible does not address the head, but the heart. Correct, I make an attempt to address both, in the short of the podcast.

 Many years of research has proving how one thinks, feels, believes and expects is important, if not more so than what one does. Beyond mere intellectual interest one motivation for integration is the sense that one's personal integrity is at stake.   In spite of some obvious risks, I still believe in ‘integrative’ work because exploring different intersections between faith and any type of learning, and experimenting with integrative processes of this kind, is desirable.  My Christian convictions will therefore represent one of integration of Theology and Psychology (theory of personality) unavoidably from the Christian point of view. 

Anxiety can trigger depression and other behavioral physical and mental health issues. It is especially hard if you are dealing with other personal, work, relationship, or family-related issues. It is okay to ask for help.
