Discussion Thread: How Do They Fit?
As we begin our class, please think about how you believe modern psychology and Christianity/the Bible fit together. Truly take time to think about what you know about Christianity and the Bible, as well as modern psychology based on empiricism, and reflect on the following questions before posting your response to the question below:
· Where do each (psychology and Christianity) get their truth and knowledge?
· What are the goals of psychology and Christianity?
· What happens when a psychological study suggests a scientific finding that opposes the Bible?
· Where does modern psychology fit in the church?
· Where does the church fit in modern psychology?
After reflecting on all of the above, answer the following question in this discussion:
· How do you believe modern psychology as a science and Christianity fit together (if at all)?
You are encouraged to truly spend time thinking about these two fields and how you believe they fit together, if at all.
