Bible, Wisdom and Human Nature 

The Bible, Wisdom and Human Nature explores important issues in understanding human nature and how to help people with problems. It considers an important question for Christians: can we mix teachings in the Bible with the wisdom found in the world around us? This book suggests that the answer is yes, since the Bible points to authorities beyond itself as useful, if they don’t contradict and are consistent with the core teachings of Scripture. Each chapter considers where our knowledge comes from and the book contains a model for understanding human nature: what a healthy personality might look like, what causes problems and things to consider when trying to help people overcome them.The content of this book was originally a Ph D, published by CWR under the title, A Theological and Practical Evaluation of CWR’s Waverley Christian Counselling Model. It has been adapted to make it more accessible for a broader readership.
