Guilt: Where Religion and Psychology Meet

David Belgum,

About this book

In Guilt: Where Religion and Psychology Meet, David Belgum explores one of the most profound and universal forces in human life — the experience of guilt — and examines it through the twin lenses of faith and psychology. Drawing on years of pastoral counseling, clinical insight, and theological reflection, Belgum offers a lucid and compassionate analysis of how guilt shapes our moral, emotional, and spiritual development.

At once scholarly and deeply humane, the book bridges the gap between pulpit and couch, showing how ancient religious understandings of sin and conscience intersect with modern psychological theories of repression, anxiety, and healing. Belgum writes not as a preacher of condemnation but as a guide toward integration and wholeness, urging readers to see guilt not merely as punishment but as a potential pathway to moral clarity and grace.

Using vivid case studies and grounded theology, Guilt illuminates how individuals can transform paralyzing self-blame into self-understanding — how confession, forgiveness, and acceptance can release the soul from inner bondage. Belgum's approach is both analytical and pastoral, making the work invaluable to clergy, therapists, and anyone wrestling with questions of moral responsibility in a modern, secular age.

Wise, empathetic, and enduringly relevant, Guilt: Where Religion and Psychology Meet remains a landmark text in the ongoing dialogue between science and faith — a book that speaks to both the wounded conscience and the searching mind.
