What this episode covers
In the 33rd episode, Dr. Knabb explores an often overlooked concept in secular psychology: grace. Specifically, he discusses newer research on the topic, from both psychological and spiritual perspectives, including how grace relates to mental health for 21st century Christ followers. He also presents a Christian view of the topic, offering perspectives from Scripture and classic Christian spiritual writings. Dr. Knabb concludes by guiding listeners through lectio divina, or divine reading, to maintain an awareness of God's grace, which is already present in the life of the believer.
