Human Nature at the Millennium: Reflections on the Integration of Psychology and Christianity

In Human Nature and the Millennium, Malcolm Jeeves deftly surveys past efforts in the integration endeavor, enriching the discussion with his expertise in the field of neuropsychology. He concludes that integration may not be as fruitful as many have intimated. His challenge to integrationists will certainly need to be taken seriously.

In 1633, Galileo proposed to the Church in Rome that the earth rotated around the sun. History records that the results were devastating. Galileo was arrested, forced to renounce his convictions, and spent the rest of his life under house arrest. Since then the relationship between science and religion has often been one of contention and animosity. 
Many in the church today, however, are sympathetic to the views of science. They see the complementary nature of science and religion and believe that, if correctly understood, each supports the other. In Science, Life and Christian Belief, Malcolm Jeeves, an experimental psychologist and specialist in neuropsychology, and R. J. Berry, an ecological geneticist, focus their attention on some of the more controversial issues that exist between the scientific and religious communities. 
The authors begin with a discussion of foundational topics such as the Hebrew-Christian and Greek influences on modern science and the nature of the scientific method. They then address five major areas of concern: origins, ontology, biology, psychology, and ecology. 
Regarding origins, the authors juxtapose the controversial positions of creationism and evolution and the theological implications of each. Ontological issues include the spiritual nature of humanity, the possible existence of an immortal soul and spirit, and what it means to be created in the image of God. The biological discussion is centered around the possibility of the origin of life and cellular development without the influence of God. The psychological issues deal with the mental and emotional characteristics of humanity, such as the difference between the animal and human psyche. Lastly, the authors address the care and stewardship of creation, developing a biblical understanding of environmentalism and answering contemporary criticisms. 
Intended for students, scholars, and interested lay readers, this volume makes a substantial contribution to the ongoing dialogue between science and the Christian faith.

Psychological Science and Christian Faith: Insights and Enrichments from Constructive Dialogue

Is it possible to integrate scientific psychology with a Christian understanding of human nature? Are science and religion locked in an inevitable conflict, or is there an underlying harmony between these two sources of knowledge about humans? This book goes to the heart of the past and present dialogue between Christianity and psychology, comparing three models that have been used to describe the relationship between them. Because Christianity and psychology deal with different levels of truth and speak vastly different languages, efforts to unify them often create more problems than they solve. What is needed is a better way to think about the relationship—an approach that does justice to the emerging insights from psychological science and biblical scholarship and that can enrich our understanding of both. In this volume, two accomplished psychologists show how this complementary dialogue can unfold, giving us a broader, deeper understanding of ourselves, our relationships, and our place in the cosmos. .

As we try to understand ourselves and the world we live in, all too often we look first to science—and then, if gaps remain in our understanding, we try to fill the gaps with reference to God and our faith. Such a “god-of-the-gaps” approach has a long history and is sadly alive and well today. This book was written to provide an alternative approach, posing this basic question: How can educated Christians maintain their intellectual honesty and, at the same time, be faithful both to Scripture and to science? This book provides examples of some of the liveliest “science vs. faith” issues today and suggestsways to think constructively about each of them.
