Abstract
I (Sorenson, 1996c) took inspiration from John Bunyan's (1678/1969) Th e Pilgrim's Progress and imagined the ten lepers in Luke 17 as invente d, allegorical characters who represent different hut common responses to the notion that integration is something indivisbly, irreducibly, and fundamentally personal. I have organized the lepers into four ''co lonies,'' addressing in a previous article the first two, which I name d ''No Need'' and ''No Good.'' In the present article I address the re maining two colonies, which I have named ''No Way'' and ''No Other Way .'' In conclusion I offer five recommendations for graduate and underg raduate curricula at Christian seminaries and universities which seek to integrate psychology into their programs.
