A biblical view of man begins with an understanding that we are both body AND spirit. There may indeed be physical or medical conditions that affect a person’s emotions, thought processes, and behavior, but these need to be examined through a biblical lens that balances the spiritual with the physical components of a person’s suffering. In this class, you’ll look at issues such as psychiatry, psychoactive medications, and other kinds of issues that people struggle with (i.e., OCD, bipolar disorder, homosexuality, and other things that may have both physical and spiritual components) in a way that considers both aspects of who we are as human beings. Through lectures, group discussion and case studies, you’ll learn a biblically-based view of the connection between physical events and behavior, emotions, perception and thought processes.
