A Theology of the Emotions

How should we feel? What should we anticipate is the redeemed, mature emotional life? I think these are worthwhile questions. They take us to a larger theological issue: what are the emotions? Go through a systematic theological text book and you won’t find “emotions” in the index. But our emotions are the stuff of everyday life. Without a basic theology for them our preaching and counseling can seem like we are focused only on the “not yet” and miss the “already.” In response, we say that Scripture speaks to all of life. Our task is to figure out how Scripture speaks deeply about and to our emotions. Any ideas?

    No ideas, only the same questions. What are emotions? Why do we have them? What do they mean? How are they related to our body, to our spirit? What do we do with them?

    We’ll certainly have something for you after Ed’s first message entitled,”What Are the Emotions?” That should help!
