520 |a Does theology have a legitimate role to play in the psychology of the Christian religion? Several strands of thought within scholarly disciplines which study religion say “Yes.” Those perspectives are reviewed and a particular theological perspective on the definition of the Christian religion is set forth.

It is concluded that, although a psychology of religious experience and behavior can and ought to be pursued, it is, in several regards, impossible to construct a psychology of the Christian religion.
