In this episode of The Weekly Watch, part of the Contending for the Word podcast, Dave Jenkins addresses a growing cultural belief that feelings determine truth. Phrases like "follow your heart," "trust your feelings," and "live your truth" are widely accepted today, but Scripture presents a very different perspective. Drawing from Jeremiah 17:9, this episode explains why the human heart, affected by sin, is not a reliable guide to truth. Instead of grounding our lives in fluctuating emotions or personal experience, Christians are called to anchor themselves in the unchanging Word of God. This episode explores how emotionalism is shaping modern culture, including therapy culture and social media-driven spirituality, and why these trends often elevate personal experience above biblical truth. Dave also explains the critical distinction between doctrine informing life and life attempting to reshape doctrine, a reversal that leads to confusion, instability, and theological drift. Listeners will be encouraged to grow in biblical discernment, to test all things by Scripture, and to remain rooted in sound doctrine within the context of the local church. The Christian life is not built on feelings, but on the truth of God's Word. For more from Contending for the Word, please visit: https://servantsofgrace.org/contending-for-the-word-podcast/
