How is therapy Christian?
The biblical basis for therapy is found in the words of the Apostle Paul in Romans 12”2 when he states, “Do not conform any longer to the pattern of the world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is – his good, pleasing and perfect will.” Another biblical concept rooted in therapy is the word Repentance. In the Bible, the word for “repentance”, metanoia, means to “change your mind.” The goal of Christian-oriented therapy is to help people grow in Christ by learning to discipline their minds.
