McMinn seeks to overcome these exaggerations and enable all those in the helping professions to see the proper understanding and place of both sin and God's grace in the Christian counseling process.

Integrative Psychotherapy: Toward a Comprehensive Christian Approach

5 reviews
Mark R. McMinn, Clark D. Campbell

IVP Academic, 2007

Fresh new perspective
I was excited to read IP because it contained what I wanted as a therapist. In my opinion, CBT and relational theories are useful but incomplete. IP incorporates these models into a coherant therapy system founded on a holistic Christian view of the person while avoiding the syncretism that is all too prevalent in our community. IP leaves the mysteries of creation in place and invents an ...

Cognitive Therapy Techniques in Christian Counseling

Mark R. McMinn

Wipf & Stock Publishers, 2008

Feelings are always related to thoughts???
Just reading the title of this book is a dead give away that McMinn is an integrationist. But that does not mean that counselors from both camps cannot learn from McMinn. Understanding the application of cognitive theory and scripture is beneficial to the counselor (i.e. renewing the mind). McMinn illustrates that it is important to determine the core beliefs of your client. In a mock ...

Why Sin Matters: The Surprising Relationaship between Our Sin . . .

5 reviews
Mark R. McMinn

Tyndale House Publishers, 2004

The Surprising Relationship Between Our Sin and God's Grace
Open the front cover of this book, and you'll see a four-color glossy reproduction of Rembrandt's "The Return of the Prodigal Son," which captured the imagination of the late Henri Nouwen, whose best book personalizes that painting's characters and themes. Inspired by Nouwen, McMinn, a psychology professor at Wheaton College (Illinois), went to St. Petersburg, Russia to "sit with" the Rembrandt ...

Psychology, Theology, and Spirituality in Christian Counseling (AACC Library)

Mark R. McMinn

Tyndale House Publishers, 1996

A must for therapists who seek to integrate spirituality
McMinn writes for the Christian professions, the religious, and the lay people. He also seeks to speak to those who are pursuing active integration of faith, psychology and theology. It is very refeshing reading as he discusses classic Christianity and its applicability to everyday problems. With the popular publication's sloppy "a little bit of this and a little bit of that" view of ...

Finding Our Way Home
Findng Our Way Home touched my heart. I appreciated the author's honesty and could identify with the emotions expressed. A personal pull toward home, toward God, is experienced by most of us. Reading this book has given me greater understanding of myself and greater compassion for others.

Mosby-Year Book, 1998

A great resource
I really enjoyed the amount of detail in books such as these. My only trigger is that you will find some information lacking. I have yet to find a whole anatomy book with EVERYTHING. Ofcourse I do have to emphasize that you'd need a special need to have more detail than the info available here. Overall, its pretty clear and informative. Highly recommended.

Psychology And The Church

Nova Science Publishers, 2005

Full of Grace and Sin: Can we continue in sin even after we've given our lives to Christ?
John Throop

Christian Bible Studies, 2004

As the popular hymn "Amazing Grace" suggests, we all once were lost, but if we've given our lives to Christ, we've been found and saved from sin. We'd like to think of our post-conversion lives as a spotless and continuous pursuit of sanctification. But as Mark R. McMinn reflects in a recent Christianity Today article, we can persist in sin for years without realizing it. Like John Newton, who continued trading slaves even after his conversion, ...
