Have you ever been told you’re too emotional? That you need to better control your feelings?
Or have you been a life-long feeling controller? Emotion pusher-downer? Do people praise you for being strong but you know deep down you’re actually just staying numb?
Jennie Allen is a NYT Best-Selling author and bible teacher, and she is finally giving us not just the permission but the sales pitch and sisterly call to embrace and untangle all our emotions. Why???
-Because God made them (even the “bad” ones)
-Because emotions are tools that inform us and connect us
-Because when we reject hard feelings, we miss out on the joyful ones too
-Because naming, feeling, and sharing our emotions is the pathway to peace
Need more convincing? Jennie herself claims to have lived much of life as a “fix-it” girl rather than a “feel-it” girl. But in the years of living through the struggles and practical strategies her book offers, she is a walking testimony for the depth, peace, and richness of life that comes when we do the brave work of untangling our emotions.
