"By any standard, Psychology has had a major impact upon the Christian community during the past thirty years. Whether that impact has been positive, negative or neutral, is often the topic of hot debate ...." (Gary Gilley)

"The presuppositions and counseling methods of psychology have become so integrated into evangelical thinking at every level that to venture criticism is to invite wrath and censure. The 'discovered' truths practiced by 'Christian' psychology are fast approaching the status once reserved for Scripture", (Jim Owens).

Yet is important that we analyze that movement in light of the Word. In The Christian and Psychology, Pastor Gary Gilley compares Scripture next to psychology to help Christians form a biblical worldview of psychology.
