Shaping The Self: A Role Model You Can Trust - Paperback

by Darrell E. Luther Phd (Author)

Darrell Luther combines expertise from his dual careers as a Christian minister and as a psychologist to provide a path for understanding the drives and needs of people by taking Jesus as a role model. Jesus is indeed a role model that we can trust for developing meaningful relationships; for understanding who we really are in our deepest sense; for developing self-esteem and self-confidence. How do we cope with the multitude of issues in our modern world? Luther merges his understanding of the Bible and of traditional psychological thinking to lay out an insightful explanation of the mind, both conscious and sub-conscious; as well as the consequences of thoughts, and the development of a sense of competence. Interspersed with the ideas that he presents are plentiful scriptural references to verify that what he writes "are not my opinions - they are what we know to be true from reading the Bible."
