Christ .. . didn’t come to treat symptoms. He came to get at the very heart of man’s disease.

Billy Graham
About This Quote

This quote best defines the heart of modern psychology. It reveals that God is concerned with the soul, not only the body, and He wants to reach the core of our problems. Rather than merely treating symptoms, God wants us to get to the root of our problems so we can overcome them. He does this through prayer, meditation, and obedience.

The modern psychologist approaches people with God-given gifts of insight, compassion, and understanding. These gifts are put to use in matters of life and death
