In Joy Life with Mattie Jackson

How to Untangle Your Emotions with Jennie Allen


Listen Later

Have you ever been told you're too emotional? That you need to better control your feelings?

Or have you been a life-long feeling controller? Emotion pusher-downer? Do people praise you for being strong but you know deep down you're actually just staying numb?

Jennie Allen is a NYT Best-Selling author and bible teacher, and she is finally giving us not just the permission but the sales pitch and sisterly call to embrace and untangle all our emotions. Why???

-Because God made them (even the "bad" ones)

-Because emotions are tools that inform us and connect us

-Because when we reject hard feelings, we miss out on the joyful ones too

-Because naming, feeling, and sharing our emotions is the pathway to peace

Need more convincing? Jennie herself claims to have lived much of life as a "fix-it" girl rather than a "feel-it" girl. But in the years of living through the struggles and practical strategies her book offers, she is a walking testimony for the depth, peace, and richness of life that comes when we do the brave work of untangling our emotions.
