Review # 2 was written on 2018-09-18 00:00:00 Bruce Storey This is a very informative primer on the use of philosophy and psychology in Christian education while maintaining a firm footing on the Bible. It tends to be dry in some areas, but also very clear, illuminating, and practical overall. The book seems to be quite free of unfounded bias against psychology and philosophy, which is quite refreshing. It does disagree with major philosophies, but where it does, it provides strong arguments for the Christian position while stating other major positions in a way those who adhere to those positions would most likely endorse. However, when reading, it does seem a tad bit like an ordered mess. Every chapter is written by a different author, which wasn't expected. While organizing the book in this way has its weaknesses, it does present certain strengths. Each chapter itself is thoroughly researched, organized, and well communicated. However, this book does seem more like an academic journal than a textbook.
