This is not a psychology textbook. This is a book is about psychology -- it is about the intersection of psychology class and the Christian worldview. This book is about bringing the Christian worldview to psychology class.

There are plenty of quality resources available for students to use to learn psychology's subject matter. But most are critical of, or silent about, issues that Christians hold dear. This book is about the issues that Christians hold dear.

There are also many excellent Christian psychology teachers - in high schools and colleges - live and online. There are many resources available to help teach psychology's content areas. But there are few resources to help teach psychology from a Christian worldview perspective -- few that provide teachers with ideas for incorporating the Christian worldview into every lesson.

In college, Christian students may encounter professors and peers who do not believe in the Christian worldview. Students may encounter psychology professors who believe that the Christian worldview has no place in psychology - who ridicule Christianity as unscientific, irrational, and silly. This book is about explaining why the Christian worldview is not silly. Instead, the Christian worldview provides the most logical and meaningful framework for understanding psychology. Psychology class should strengthen students' faith.

In every psychology class, students learn about psychology's major school-of-thought - behaviorism, Freudian psychodynamic psychology, humanistic psychology, and evolutionary psychology. Each makes specific claims about human nature - what it means to be human. This book is about understanding those claims and contrasting them with what the Bible says about human nature and what it means to be human.

In every psychology class, students learn about the brain and nervous system, sensation and perception, motivation and emotion, abnormal and treatment psychology, and the rest of the 'fundamentals of psychology.' This book is about how each topic points toward God. This book is about positively asserting a Christian psychological apologetic so that students can boldly bring their Christian worldview to psychology class.
