We believe many myths about emotions: Emotions always lie. They lead you astray. Emotions aren't spiritual. The more spiritual we become, the less emotional we'll be. And the biggest myth of all: God isn't emotional.
None of those are true.
The truth is emotions are an essential God-given source of wisdom and guidance. Learning to listen to the truth revealed by our emotions is not only important but vital to Christian discipleship. It lies at the center of rich relationships, vibrant families, and healthy churches.
In the book The Wisdom of Your Heart: Discovering the Purpose and Power of Your Emotions, Marc tackles these myths and explores a better way of seeing and relating to our emotions. In the pages of this book, Marc explores:
- The four most destructive Christian myths about emotions.
- What scripture says about God's emotions and ours.
- How recent brain research gives insight into God's design for our emotions.
- How to notice our emotional responses and hear the truth they contain.
- Practical guidance for responding to difficult emotions such as grief, fear, and anger.
