Ep. 56: You Are Human

Listen below or subscribe on iTunes or Google Play

As Christians, we often think (or are told) that we aren’t allowed to feel disappointment, worry, anxiety, and sadness. We are implored by friends to have “the joy of the Lord” instead, or to remember how much God loves you. If God loves you, you should feel happy and not sad. These platitudes make us feel like we have to be robots or angels instead of humans. Meanwhile, God created us to experience emotion. He created us human. And He gives you grace to experience life as a human.
