Untangling Emotions
How do you feel about how you feel? Our emotions are complex. Some of us seem able to ignore our feelings, while others feel controlled by them. But most of us would admit that we don't always know what to do with how we feel. The Bible teaches us that our emotions are an indispensable part of what makes us human—and play a crucial role in our relationships with God and others. Exploring how God designed emotions for our good, this book shows us how to properly engage with our emotions—even the more difficult ones like fear, anger, shame, guilt, and sorrow—so we can better understand what they reveal about our hearts and handle them wisely in everyday moments.
Untangling Emotions
Written by two experienced counselors, this resource sets forth a holistic view of emotions rooted in the Bible, offering a practical approach to engaging with both positive and negative emotions in a God-honoring way.

Summary of J. Alasdair Groves & Winston T. Smith's Untangling Emotions
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The Bible takes a radically different view than the assumption that the most faithful people will be the most carefree and emotionally upbeat. It is full of aching, grieving saints who tear their clothes and sit in the ashes when their world gets upended. #2 We must understand that the Bible commands joy, gratitude, contentment, peace, and the like. But that is not the whole story. We must also understand what is good about our negative emotions if we are ever going to handle them well. #3 We need negative, unpleasant emotions because we live in a fallen world. We were created to respond to things as they actually are, but human beings should be distressed by what is distressing, horrified by violence and abuse, and deeply concerned about the possibility of injury to someone or something we love. #4 God is frequently jealous for the affection, loyalty, and worship of his people. Our negative emotions, like God’s, play a necessary role in our lives. They tell us that something is wrong. We need to understand that our darker feelings are not a curse but a gift.

Feelings and Faith
Weaves together biblical exposition and practical application to demonstrate how emotions relate to the Christian life. Emotions are a vital part of what it means to be a human being made in the image of God and redeemed in Jesus Christ. But often our emotions confuse and mislead us. So what is the proper place for emotions in a Christian's walk of faith? In Feelings and Faith Brian Borgman draws from his extensive biblical knowledge and his pastoral experience to help readers understand both divine and human emotions. After laying a biblical foundation he moves on to practical application, focusing on how Christians can put to death ungodly emotional displays and also cultivate godly emotions. This biblically informed, practical volume is helpful for pastors, counselors, and serious-minded Christians who wish to develop a full-orbed faith that encompasses their emotional life.
What God Has to Say about Our Bodies
"God's eternal plan for us involves our body. We can't write off our physical life as spiritually irrelevant." — Sam Allberry There's a danger in focusing too much on the body. There's also a danger in not valuing it enough. In fact, the Bible has lots to say about the body. With the coming of Jesus, "The Word became flesh and dwelt among us"—flesh that was pierced and crushed for the sins of the world. In What God Has to Say about Our Bodies, Sam Allberry explains that all of us are fearfully and wonderfully made, and should regard our physicality as a gift. He offers biblical guidance for living, including understanding gender, sexuality, and identity; dealing with aging, illness, and death; and considering the physical future hope that we have in Christ. In this powerfully written book, you'll gain a new understanding for the immeasurable value of our bodies and God's ultimate plan to redeem them.
