Program Unit Type: Seminar
Accepting Papers? Yes

Call For Papers: Our current long-term theme is Facing Life's Crises: Reading Biblical Texts from a Psychological Perspective, and this year's concluding focus is on issues around Ageing, Death, and Mourning as depicted in the Bible. As always, we require that a named psychologist or psychological theory or approach be included in the paper and the abstract and request that reference to the biblical languages be included where relevant. Anyone on our emailing list (Friends of PsyBibs) will be circulated with the accepted papers in advance of the Meeting, where they will be briefly summarised and then discussed in earnest by all present. Anyone else wishing to receive the papers should email the Chair in order to join the emailing list, mckayh@edgehill.ac.uk.
