Building Relationships Appropriate Integrating Using Principles of Biblical Theology and Effective Principles of Psychology

Developing interpersonal relationships has been a fundamental aspect of human interaction since ancient times. In his book, Steven examines the intricacies of nurturing these connections through the unique perspectives of paganism, Christianity, and psychology. These belief systems emphasize moral dichotomies such as good versus evil, right versus wrong, and black versus white, which profoundly influence the dynamics of life and death, peace and war. Steven's journey has been marked by profound adversity stemming from a turbulent childhood spent navigating foster homes, adoption, and institutional care. This tumultuous upbringing led to struggles with drug addiction and stints in correctional facilities and mental healthcare institutions. Steven found himself engulfed in the world of gangs, street life, and addiction. However, amidst these formidable challenges, he underwent a transformative process marked by resilience, learning from missteps, and a commitment to education. Throughout his tumultuous experiences, Steven has encountered individuals from various belief systems and has been able to forge meaningful connections with each of them.
