Biblical Worldview Essay Essay

IntroductionThe foundation to Christian faith is the belief that world is created in the image of god. My major/program of study is psychology. I am wanting to counsel victims of domestic violence. Which can be a very honor job because it gives me many opportunities to be able to reach out and help others as well as honor God. The way this belief will require the way I interact with people in the field of psychology is by showing kindness, trust, patience, and understanding. In this paper I will be prominent examples of how I will use my Christian faith with those I will be working with.Example 1The field of psychology is a very enduring one. It is about helping nurture others in need. From the very beginning of time, we were all created in the image of God (Genesis 126-28). By being created in the image of God, who is the healer of all things gives me the ability to help others in their process of healing in the name of Jesus Christ. But it begins with being morally salutary a nd honest. Being a psychologist you must remember that confidentiality and honesty stands above all things when doing your job. The Ethical Principles of Psychologists and Code of Conduct of the APA, states that it is every psychologists job to promote accuracy, honesty, and truth in the science, teaching, and practice of psychology.By being morally upright and honest with those that I work with it will show that I honor God and that I am created in the image of God. The scripture Psalm 373 states Trust in the LORD and do good. Then you will live safely in the land and prosper. For me this means to be the Christian that I am and to keep my trust and honesty in the Lord when doing all things which includes my duties at work as well as at home.Example 2In the field of psychology you will interact with lots of different people. slightly of them may have different up-bringing, cultures, beliefs, and etc. One of the most important things for us to remember and practice when working with different people is respect. God tells us that we are to respect everyone, as Christians we must be conscious that God has created all mankind in his image. Apostle Peter states in his first Epistle Show congruous respect to everyone Love the brotherhood. Fear God, Honor the King (1 Peter 217). None of us are perfect. So we should not look for the bad exactly respect the good in each person. As a Christian I always treat others as I would want to be do by and that is with respect.It doesnt matter if it is at home, school, work, or etc. I believe that by showing my respect to each and every person I beget in contact with shows that I honor God. And, not only that but for me it is rewarding to know that I am respectful to others. So as a counselor in domestic violence I plan on staying steed fast at being respectful and being the hands and feet that God wants me to be in this profession. And, that would be to be kind, caring, understanding, honest, trustworthy, respectful, and fa ithful to God, myself, my co-workers, and clients.ConclusionIn the profession of psychology you need to be honest, trustworthy, and respectful to everyone you come in contact with. It is Gods Law and the laws of APA. As a psychologist I am going to conduct myself in a way that honors God and shows others that I am created in the image of God. Psychology is a very rewarding and life changing profession. By being the person God wants me to be I will be successful in helping other to heal and meet their needs. God commands us to be morally upright with all things and we are to obey his word.
