 Beyond Born Again-- Chapter 1: A Mighty Fortress Is Our Mentality
Christian psychologist Hyder recalls: "The actual psychotherapy I had given him was not significantly different from that which he would have gotten from a non-Christian psychologist." [90] Softliners feel that one's commitment to Christ facilitates the healing process that everyone has some chance to go through successfully.
Witness Hyder once again: "With [Christian patients] I honestly attempt to integrate sound principles of psychotherapy with teachings of Scripture." [93] The impression here, however, is very different from that of hard-line counselors like Jay Adams who would apparently preach a sermon on repentance to anyone who came to him for any reason.
Thus it is a priority for Born Again Christians to show that their psychological methods and views of self and the world are at the very least consistent with and suggested by the teaching of the Bible.
