Manage episode 455744685 series 3624724
Dr. Jeff Bjorck is an emeritus professor of psychology who dedicated 30 years to teaching at Fuller Seminary's Graduate School of Psychology, while also pursuing his passions as an accomplished pianist and composer.
In this episode, Jeff shares his journey from a curious child with ADHD to becoming a clinical psychologist and researcher. He discusses the challenges of integrating faith and psychology, the importance of embracing our limitations as God's gifts, and how to maintain spiritual and mental health while serving others.
Listen to how Jeff challenges us to approach life with a spirit of continuous learning and surrender to God's will, recognizing the value of both professional expertise and personal faith. He encourages us to cultivate a posture of self-care as worship, asking thoughtful questions about our use of time and technology, and seeking to understand God's purpose in our daily lives.
It was inspiring to hear Jeff's insights on finding balance between various interests, from hang gliding to piano composition, and how he has learned to navigate the changing landscape of academia and culture over the years. May these reflections encourage you to embrace both the joys and challenges of your own spiritual and professional journey, trusting in God's guidance as you seek to grow in wisdom and impact others for His kingdom.
