For centuries, the fruit of the Spirit has rightfully served as a
wellspring of reflection on the virtues that epitomize the
Christian life and character-building. However, the notion of the
fruit of the Spirit is not limited solely to forming the biblical
foundation of ethical living. Psychologist and theologian Zoltan
Doernyei argues that if we understand the nine attributes
collectively as a concise portrayal of the ideal Christian self,
this approach places the notion of the fruit of the Spirit at the
intersection of several important theological themes, such as being
conformed to the divine image, the gradual advancement of the
kingdom of God, and new creation. In The Psychology of the Fruit of
the Spirit, Doernyei offers a scholarly exposition of the relevant
theological content associated with the fruit of the Spirit.
Complementing his theological reflections with findings from the
field of psychology, he brings expertise in both psychology and
theology to bear on this important biblical concept. His integrated
perspective helps to uncover the full meaning and theological
potential of the fruit of the Spirit by helping to clarify the
nature of its nine facets, defining broader psychological
dimensions that underlie the fruit, and offering practical lessons
for cultivating it in the Christian life.
