Religious experience and psychology
Description
Book Introduction
It would not be an exaggeration to say that the modern society we live in is a society in crisis.
The crisis of modern man fundamentally stems from the severance of his proper relationship with God.
Religion has a mission to actively address and help the crises that humans face, rather than accepting them as fate or turning a blind eye to them.

What differentiates Christian counseling, which is based on the dialogue between religion and psychology, from general counseling lies in its value system, which holds that God is with those who are suffering and has the power to help and grow them.
Christian counseling is about helping people in crisis in their relationship with God and ultimately enabling them to experience God's redemptive power.
In this book, the authors address various issues faced by many Christians under the broad theme of 'religious experience and psychology.'
They sought to concretize the dynamic power and crucial role of religion, along with a psychological understanding of the human person, in helping people overcome problems of conflict and suffering in the course of their personal development and religious experience.
However, as seen in modern culture, religion itself, which was expected to overcome human problems, can sometimes act as a source of alienation, so crisis situations related to religious experience were also addressed.
I hope this book will be helpful to those who work to heal the suffering and sick souls in a complex and chaotic society.
