Episode Synopsis

In this episode, we’re diving into the way emotions show up in our faith and in our churches. Lately, it feels like many churches swing too far in one direction or the other, either chasing emotional highs and sensationalism or clinging to a cold, purely intellectual approach where feelings have no place.Maybe we grew up in one of these extremes. Maybe we even lean that way ourselves. Either way, it can leave us doubting the church or even doubting our own faith.But here’s the key question: is there a balance? Can we grow deeper in our knowledge of Christ, wrestle with theology, and still feel, care, and display genuine affection for God and His people?In this episode, we’ll explore the dangers of both extremes, challenge the ways we misunderstand emotional engagement in faith, and reframe how we approach worship, relationships, and assurance in Christ. By the end, you’ll see that when guided by truth, our emotions aren’t the enemy; they can actually lead us into a deeper, steadier experience of God’s love.Book Recommendation: REST: A Consideration of Faith vs. Faithfulness by Theocasthttps://theocast.org/collections/books/products/rest-a-consideration-of-faith-vs-faithfulness-ebookFollow Three Thirty Ministry on Instagram: ⁠https://www.instagram.com/three.thirty.mens.ministry/⁠Subscribe to He Must Increase on Youtube:⁠⁠www.youtube.com/@HeMustIncreasePodcasCheck Out Our Website: threethirtyministry.com#theology #reformed
