Book excerpt: Weaves together biblical exposition and practical application to demonstrate how emotions relate to the Christian life. Emotions are a vital part of what it means to be a human being made in the image of God and redeemed in Jesus Christ. But often our emotions confuse and mislead us. So what is the proper place for emotions in a Christian's walk of faith? In Feelings and Faith Brian Borgman draws from his extensive biblical knowledge and his pastoral experience to help readers understand both divine and human emotions. After laying a biblical foundation he moves on to practical application, focusing on how Christians can put to death ungodly emotional displays and also cultivate godly emotions. This biblically informed, practical volume is helpful for pastors, counselors, and serious-minded Christians who wish to develop a full-orbed faith that encompasses their emotional life.

Download or read book Theology of Emotions written by Sky Cady and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2012-12-01 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a Christian who values strong emotional experience and rigorous rational thought I would identify myself as a reformed charismatic, with a heart for cross cultural mission, who desperately wants to know and love Jesus and others better. In this book I will not be arguing for the role of emotion as sole interpreter of reality, or falling into the abyss of process theology, but seek to give emotion more weight in understanding our view of reality. More specifically, I hope to shed light on the false distinction between reason and emotion and show how this gives us substance to better understand and know God. This book will argue for a theology of emotions that balances reason and emotion in a purple, biblically approved, faithfully honest, psychologically integrative, and theologically composite way.

Book excerpt: What am I feeling? Emotions can be confusing. One moment we're happy, content, and hopeful, and the next we're anxious, hurt, and overwhelmed. But we don't have to live at the mercy of our emotions. In True Feelings, a mother-daughter team clears away common misconceptions and mixed messages about our feelings to offer us a biblical perspective on emotions— helping us understand how they work, why we feel what we feel, and how to develop good emotional habits. We will see that we don't have to ignore, excuse, or follow our feelings, but can instead learn to honor God with our emotions as an integral part of who he made us to be.
Download or read book The Cry of the Soul written by Dan Allender and published by NavPress. This book was released on 2015-09-14 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An excerpt from the foreword by Joni Eareckson Tada: “With the book you are holding, you have stumbled upon the best of guides. I should know. I first read The Cry of the Soul decades ago when I was still sorting through a lot of hurt and frustration connected with my quadriplegia (yes, I read it on that music stand holding a mouth stick). The Cry of the Soul showed me what to do with my anger and hurt—not stuff it under the carpet of my conscience, or minimize it, but actually do something good with it.” All emotion—whether positive or negative—can give us a glimpse of the true nature of God. We want to control our negative emotions and dark desires. God wants us to recognize them as the cry of our soul to be made right with Him. Beginning with the Psalms, Cry of the Soul explores what Scripture says about our darker emotions and points us to ways of honoring God as we faithfully embrace the full range of our emotional life.
