FMP 260: Emotional Maturity vs. Emotional Integrity Part 1


Listen Later

Emotions are a gift from God, but how we express them can either build up or tear down.

In Episode 260 of The Family Meeting Podcast, Thomas and Lysandra explore the difference between emotional maturity (controlling and managing emotions) and emotional integrity (honestly expressing emotions without shame or suppression). Too often in Christian homes, we either explode in anger or shut down in silence, when God calls us to handle emotions with both truth and grace.

In this conversation, you’ll learn:

  • The difference between emotional maturity and emotional integrity.
  • Why denying your feelings is just as damaging as losing control of them.
  • Biblical principles for expressing emotions in a healthy, God-honoring way.
  • How emotional maturity and integrity strengthen marriage and parenting.
  • Practical steps for creating a safe space for emotions in your home.

If you’ve ever wrestled with when to speak up, when to hold back, or how to express emotions without sinning, this episode will give you clarity and hope.
