Really good advice for real life
This book title intrigued me. I am glad I bought it & read it. It brings together in a practical way, biblically teaching & how psychology is an extension of that. The Bible giving us the why & psychology giving the how.
This is not a pie in the sky or quick fix book. It is filled with hope & practical ways of sharing that hope.
My granddaughter is graduating from high school & one of her favorite subjects is psychology. I was so impressed with this book that I bought one for her. I hope it will set the stage for her next adventure in life.

My wisdom expanded greatly in reading this book
I liked this book because it helped me understand better the relationship of psychology & the teachings in the Bible.
I would recommend this book to anyone searching for help with their own, family or friends mental health.
The book will also help Christians who are working to expand their knowledge & understanding of the Bible & Scripture. Marsh

a succinct agreement between Christianity and psychology
Jed Jurchenko brings together mainstream psychology practices with scripture references. I found a good deal of wholeness and agreement in this study. One result of the study made me realize that striving to be ‘good’ leads to falls when achieved. My goal now is to love God at all times and let me be loved by Him.

Insightful
Insightful for anyone to read and apply! Great resources for students and professionals who don't believe that there is a connection between psychology and the Bible.

Very much a pop-psychology surface level evaluation, yet Jurchenko's attitude and writing is contagious.

Interesting book
Thus book shows how the Bible and psychology are actually not at odds with each other. This is practical and interesting.

Good read
In this book I have seen why I struggle so much in my spiritual life and with 'one another'. With the help of the Holy Spirit I will walk different because of what I have read.

Great correlation
Good connection of psychology and the bible. The two are not mutually exclusive. Sounds biblical/scriptural foundations for his statements in regards to psychological methods. Extreme good read for the student, professional, pastoral, and layperson.
