Going through the eMotions: Intro

Experts say everything we feel can be boiled down into eight basic emotions. We see them all reflected in Scripture. Digging into each of these eight emotions is going to help us better understand God’s design for us. Let’s not be satisfied with simply going through the motions.

Psalm 103:8 (NLT)  The LORD is compassionate and merciful, slow to get angry and filled with unfailing love.

Hebrews 4:15 (ESV)  For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who in every respect has been tempted as we are, yet without sin.
