In the worlds of do-it-yourself psychology and deliverance ministries, the psychologists are trying to figure out how the mind of man works to help him solve his problems, while the deliverance ministries maintain all of man's problems, from insanity to back pains, are Satan's fault. Both view man under bondage. One sees man as being under the sway of misconceptions of the mind; the other sees man as being under the influence of demons.
Dr. Neil T. Anderson has carved out a place for himself in both worlds with his books, study guides, and videos on spiritual conflicts.
