Show Notes

If you've been listening to Theocast, you’ve probably heard us say, “Don’t trust your feelings when it comes to assurance or peace with God.” As you learn more about the Reformed or confessional faith, you might wonder if emotions are bad and should be pushed aside. Yet, as you live your life and feel deeply, you may ask: do my emotions matter—to God, my pastor, or my church? Jon and Justin will explore these questions and discuss how confessionalism emphasizes processing our experiences and emotions through the objectively revealed presence of God: with us, for us, and to save us. We hope this conversation will encourage and help you better understand the role of feelings in the Christian life.
