Even if you don't feel overwhelmed or confused by emotions, it's still helpful to better understand others, and how to relate in a healthy way. ( ) God created us as emotional beings after his own image. IN way too many sermons and books, emotions were treated as something that should be submitted to the ratio, will, or Jesus Christ's, as if they don't matter and Christians should strive to become balanced, moderate, and emotional flat. In Untangling Emotions, J. Alasdair Groves & Winston T. Smith draw different conclusions. Circumstances and feelings shouldn't reign, but emotions are real. It's how we act or fuel our emotions that can make a difference. Think of anger management, accept and offer forgiveness instead of indulging in shame and guilt, and forest the fruit of the Holy Spirit amidst adverse situations or emotions. The authors untangle different emotions, from grief and anger to joy and plea for a conscious way to respond to your emotions, including how you feel about how you feel. It is of vital importance to your relationship with God and others in your life. Our emotions are one of the most common and commonly misunderstood opportunities in our lives to grow in maturity and love.Emotions happen in our body, yet we live in a historical moment where the tendency is to overstate the role of the body. Our souls and flesh are interwoven. Understanding the mechanics of the brain is not the same as understanding how to live rightly before the Lord. We were made to respond with love for what is good and hatred for what is evil. No matter how much we come to understand the biology of our brains, we will still always need to wrestle with our emotions as expressions of what we love. Helping your respond with godly maturity to your emotions, good, bad and ugly, is the core message of this book, that involves a lot of theology and less on neuroscience.

How do you feel about how you feel? Our emotions are complex. Some of us seem able to ignore our feelings, while others feel controlled by them. But most of us would admit that we don't always know what to do with how we feel. The Bible teaches us that our emotions are an indispensable part of what makes us human-and play a crucial role in our relationships with God and others. Exploring how God designed emotions for our good, this book shows us how to properly engage with our emotions-even the more difficult ones like fear, anger, shame, guilt, and sorrow-so we can better understand what they reveal about our hearts and handle them wisely in everyday moments. J. Alasdair Groves (MDiv, Westminster Theological Seminary) serves as the executive director for the New England branch of the Christian Counseling & Educational Foundation (CCEF). He is also the director of CCEF's School of Biblical Counseling. No s'han trobat descripcions de biblioteca. |
