A Profound and Insightful Interpretation of the Human Spirit and its Impact on Human DevelopmentIn this deep and enlightening discussion, psychologist and theologian James E. Loder demonstrates how a theological perspective enlarges our understanding of how humans grow and develop from birth through the life span. "What is a lifetime," he asks, "in a vast, apparently empty universe . . . when time and space so far outreach our grasp?" In exploring this question, Loder examines the intimate relationship between human nature and the divine and provides moving case studies, bringing the work of psychologists Freud, Erikson, and Piaget to that of seminal Christian theologians Kierkegaard, Barth, Torrance, and Pannenberg. Loder acknowledges that psychological stage theories enable us to understand the logic of humans' evolving relationship with the world and with God. At the same time, he demonstrates that the divine spirit has a logic of its own, which is not bound by stages, and which reveals "patterns of ultimate significance in the transient, fleeting moments we call a human lifetime." Seminarians, theologians, ministers, and pastoral counselors will benefit from this rich, thought-provoking guide."James Loder combines an uncommon intelligence with the compassion of an extraordinary therapist. Those . . . prepared to grapple with science, social science, and Christian theology, will find [this book] important, thought-provoking, and rewarding."—Sharon Daloz Parks, Whidbey Institute, co-author, Common Fire: Leading Lives of Commitment in a Complex World "A masterful interdisciplinary work. . . an insightful and engaging contribution for reflective practitioners in . . . fields concerned with formation and transformation, such as Christian education, counseling, mentoring, youth ministry, and spiritual direction."—Daniel S.
