Faith Development Theory (FDT) is one of the rare perspectives in psychology, which has emerged as an
interaction of theology and developmental theory. Influenced by the liberal theologians as Tillich (1957)
Neibuhr (1950; 1961) and scholars of religion as W. C. Smith 1963; 1979; 1998) on the one hand, and
developmental psychologists such as Piaget and Kolhberg who proposed cognitive and moral development
theories (, Piaget, 1972; Piaget &Inhelder, 1969; Kohlberg, 1969; 1981) on the other, it has touched upon the
most subjective and yet universal aspect of human psychology-faith. The objectives of the following discussion
are to analyze how faith development theory can be related to Christian concept of faith in which it emerged,
what are the similarities and differences, and what lessons can be learned from these comparisons for
experiencing religious faith in a globalized world demanding tolerance and understanding of the spirit of
religion behind its diverse forms.
