Christian Psychology
Christian psychology is an approach to
psychology that begins with a Christian understanding of the soul. Sizemore (2011)
credited two philosophers, Stephen Evans and Robert Roberts, with the impetus
for Christian psychology based on their challenge to develop a Christian
psychology based on a Christian framework and not limited to the variables
studied in secular psychology.
Sisemore referred to a journal as “the
primary voice of the position, Edification: The Transdisciplinary Journal of
the Society for Christian Psychology.”
Sisemore also referred to Eric Johnson’s
work (e.g., see Johnson, 2020), including the Society for Christian Psychology (Johnson was the director when Sisemore's article was written).
Christian psychology is one of the views in Johnson's (2010) Five Views book referenced below. The book includes a chapter on Christian psychology and perspectives on other views.
