Abstract
Concluding remarks argue that there is a mandate for dialogue and collaboration between psychology and theology for the purpose of understanding and responding to mystical religious experience. It also draws attention to the need for denominations in the Reformed Theology tradition to revisit their theological roots to recapture the importance of faith experience and to recognize the importance and relevance of both individual and corporate experiences of God to the spiritual health of individual churches and the denomination as a whole.
