Christianity Today Book Award Winner Outreach Recommended Resource
of the Year (Counseling and Relationships) The church and science
have drifted apart over the past century. Today the church is often
deemed irrelevant by those who trust science, and science is often
deemed irrelevant by those whose primary loyalties are to the
church. However, this book shows that the new science of
virtue--the field of positive psychology--can serve as a bridge
point between science and the church and can help renew meaningful
conversation. In essence, positive psychology examines how ordinary
people can become happier and more fulfilled. Mark McMinn clarifies
how positive psychology can complement Christian faith and promote
happiness and personal flourishing. In addition, he shows how the
church can help strengthen positive psychology. McMinn brings the
church's experience and wisdom on six virtues--humility,
forgiveness, gratitude, grace, hope, and wisdom--into conversation
with intriguing scientific findings from positive psychology. Each
chapter includes a section addressing Christian counselors who seek
to promote happiness and fulfillment in others.
