Personality and Christian Maturity: A Process Congruity Model

Abstract

An analysis of Rogers', Gendlin's and Jung's theory of personality revealed that the processes of actualization and congruence are common to all three theorists. The same two processes are fundamental to the Scripture's discussion of Christian maturity. These two processes are described as forming a model of personality and Christian maturity in which the processes in these two spheres are the same but the contents are different. The similarities and differences are discussed but it is maintained that genuine integration is only possible when some processes or principles are common to Christianity and psychology.
