Bethel Christian Center

“Some Christians have been taught to repress their emotions as they worship. They’ve been told to fear feeling anything too strongly, and that maturity means holding back. But what we want to avoid is emotionalism, not emotions. Emotionalism pursues feelings as an end in themselves; it wants to feel something with no regard for how that feeling is produced or its ultimate purpose. In contrast, the emotions that worship is meant to express are a response to who God is and what he’s done.” Bob Kauflin We are not only to pursue God with our mind and will, but with our emotions also.
