    The study of the Psychology of Messiah's? I would think that this would just fall under the study of Psychology of Personality. Are you looking for a BA, MA, or PhD? Something this obscure might not have a specific degree named after it. I think getting a theory base psychology degree in BA and MA form would allow you to study in a messianic way I suppose?

    What do you mean by messianic perspective?

    I've worked with many psych patients who think that they're the messiah! You need nothing more than a normal psychology degree for that.

    Kidding aside... are you referring to something more along the lines of biblical counseling? If so, there are a number of biblical counseling certifications out there. The only thing to consider is that this is not a degree that will allow you to ethically and legally do counseling or work in psychology... rather, you might find a place in religious settings where people are concerned about religious matters in their life (using the bible as a guide and not principals of psychology). If this is something that you're interested in doing, I'd recommend getting a degree in divinity and becoming a pastor. You'll find more jobs that way.
