In this episode, I sit down with my friend Ashleigh Guynn, a licensed therapist, to explore some of the common phrases Christians use when talking about emotions—phrases like ‘your feelings are lying to you’ or ‘God is in control, so you shouldn’t feel afraid.’
While these sayings sound spiritual, they can sometimes oversimplify complex emotional struggles and prevent true emotional engagement with God. Ashleigh helps us unpack what the Bible really says about emotions, how to replace half-truth clichés with God’s truth, and why emotions are part of our God-designed human experience. If you’ve ever wrestled with your feelings as a believer, this conversation will encourage and equip you!
