| 520 | |a Noting that current psychological discussions of conversion give far less attention to the "sense of sin" than did William James and his contemporaries, this article argues for renewed attention to sin and its role in the conversion experience.

As many seek relief from the "tyranny" of their narcissistic needs, the author contends that what would constitute conversion for them is the "transformation" of narcissism. Typical candidates for such conversion are adults, not adolescents. | ||
