In 2001, the Pew Charitable Trust challenged psychology, along with seven other academic disciplines, to show how its dominant models of human nature compare with a Judeo-Christian view of the individual. Miller and Delaney, professors of psychology at the University of New Mexico, took on the task and here present a report of this two-year scholarly process. Contributors in psychology, public health, and pastoral counseling examine a range of Judeo-Christian models of human nature and look at how psychological research and practice might differ if informed by theistic perspectives.
