But they are now alienated from God and subject to different forms of psychopathology--sin, suffering, and biopsychosocial damage. So God intervened in Jesus Christ to manifest even greater glory. Through union with his incarnation, life, death, resurrection, and exaltation, Jesus has overcome the soul-disordering consequences of sin and now is bringing about a new creation by the Holy Spirit and faith. The church as the body of Christ is where God's therapy is put into action--where people can learn to flourish in communion with God and each other as God originally intended. Told in this way, the deep connection between Christianity and psychology becomes evident. In \u003cem\u003eGod and Soul Care\u003c\/em\u003e--a companion to his \u003cem\u003eFoundations for Soul Care\u003c\/em\u003e--Eric L. Johnson explores the riches of Christian theology from the heights of the Trinity to the mysteries of eschatology, uncovering ample resources for engaging in dialogue with modern psychology. Each chapter not only serves as an overview of a key doctrine but also highlights its therapeutic implications for Christian counseling and psychology. A groundbreaking achievement in the synthesis of theology and psychology, \u003cem\u003eGod and Soul Care\u003c\/em\u003e is an indispensable resource for students, scholars, pastors, and clinicians.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 736\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2.3 x 9.1 x 6.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e September 05, 2017\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42130339463303,"sku":"9780830851591","price":75.58,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0601\/2623\/2711\/files\/c83aaff2a4fdc2a9bdd2ac6e94d72aad.webp?v=1732610066","url":"https:\/\/booksby.splitshops.com\/products\/god-and-soul-care-the-therapeutic-resources-of-the-christian-faith-hardcover","provider":"Books by splitShops","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
