Faith and Feelings
Feelings, emotions, and our own desires and inclinations play a large role in our faiths. Probably a much larger role than we’re aware of. We want to feel God. We want to feel like God is real and that he loves us and that Jesus really lives, died, and came back to life. But what about when we don’t feel those things?
In this episode, we discuss western Christians’ tendency to emphasize individualism and it’s impact on our faith. We also talk about our culture’s perception as of a couple of God’s characteristics, imminence and transcendence, and how that relates to the place of feelings in our faith as well.
It turns out that our culture generally takes an opposite perspective on the importance of feelings in faith than the Bible. Let’s fix that.
This is the Good Monsters Podcast, critically looking at Christianity and Christian culture from a biblical perspective.
