Summary
In David Entwistle book Integrative Approaches to Psychology and Christianity: An Introduction to Worldview Issues, Philosophical Foundations, and Models of Integration, is what the title tells us. What he has done with his book is give the reader a comparison of how both religion (God), and science (Psychology) go hand in hand with each other. Mr. Entwistle takes God words and teaches and uses them with models that psychology has taught us and combined them together and gave impeccable reasons why both of these fields are actually the same thing.
