몰트만의 생애와 저서에 관한 고찰

Reading the life and writings of Moltmann through development psychology

In this paper we read the life and writings of J. Moltmann from perspective of a psychology(especially development psychology) So far, we have seen Moltmann within systematic theological horizon. However, if psychological horizon is added, we will come to a deeper understanding. A significant theologian like Moltmann can be a good model example for Christian counseling. Erikson’s study on ‘young man Luther’ shows this. Therefore, we think that reading Moltmann through a psychological point of view contribute to both systematic theology and christian counseling. We investigated his life by using steps of development psychology, then we criticized his books, Theology of hope and Crucified God from a psychological point of view in the paper. Recently inter–disciplinary studies between theology and psychology had begun. Although Christian counseling itself without theological studies of other departments could help clients, inter–connections of Christian counseling and outcomes of different theological departments(ex, biblical theology, systematic theology) could be more serviceable to clients.
