Description
Summary:Integration is described in terms of paradox, whereby the reality of tensions, though uncomfortable, is celebrated and through which creative solutions are sometimes achieved. It is suggested those interested in integrating psychology and theology have learned to accept and value the paradox that integration entails different, and sometimes competing, perspectives.
