The Psychology of Christian Character Formation offers clergy and
those preparing for ministry some of the potential riches provided
by rapidly developing branches of contemporary scientific
psychology of which they might otherwise be unaware. Joanna
Collicutt, an experienced psychologist and theological educator,
focuses on the psychology of character, virtue and spirituality.
Furthermore, the psychology is not used to support training in
pastoral ministry to others, but rather to support the reader's own
self-awareness and spiritual growth. Joanna Collicutt understands
Christian formation as Christian communities and their members
growing up into conformity with the character of Christ through the
action of the Holy Spirit. This is explored in the three parts of
the book: first, an exploration of the process of Christian
formation that includes a detailed analysis of the character of
Jesus of Nazareth; secondly some focused psychology aimed at
supporting an informed self-awareness in the reader; finally - and
the most lengthy section - a series of chapters devoted to using
psychological insights to help cultivate the Christ-like
characteristics identified in the first section.
