Over one hundred years of modern psychology and we still haven't improved on the principles and lessons taught by the greatest doctor of the human soul -- Jesus. Even so, contemporary doctors of the mind typically take a narrow approach that sees any religious belief as a crutch people use to cope with their feelings of helplessness. In this unique and eye-opening book, Dr. Mark Baker offers a refreshing and practical understanding of how the teachings of Jesus are compatible with the science of psychology and can greatly improve our daily lives. Embedded in Jesus' actions and sayings are remarkable lessons about human behavior that correspond to recent discoveries in the field of psychology. Divided into two major sections, "Understanding People" and "Knowing Yourself," this enlightening guide offers engaging anecdotes that illustrate the good sense of Jesus. The result is a powerful book that reveals the keys to psychological health and well-being.Baker, Mark W. is the author of 'Greatest Psychologist Who Ever Lived Jesus and the Wisdom of the Soul', published 2004 under ISBN 9780060670870 and ISBN 0060670878.
