Book Description
The Bobgans discuss James Dobson's commitment to psychology and show that many of his specific teachings originated from secular psychological theorists. Since one of Dobson's basic assumptions and extensive teaching has to do with self-esteem, the Bobgans present the scientific research regarding self-esteem and discuss the results of the California Task Force on Self-Esteem. However, more important for Christians, the Bobgans examine what the Bible says about esteeming and loving self. Other topics discussed are psychological needs, morals, acceptance, and forgiveness.
