Despite all the advances of modern psychology, we still have not improved on the principles and lessons taught by the greatest doctor of the human soul – Jesus.

In Jesus, The Greatest Therapist Who Ever Lived, bestselling author and psychologist Dr. Mark Baker offers a practical understanding of how the teachings of Jesus are not only compatible with the science of psychology, but have the power to illuminate even the darkest corners of the human spirit.
