Cultural Connections | EP.21 | Stop Letting Your Feelings Define Your Identity

Season 1 Episode 21 Published 2 months ago
Description

Your feelings are real… but they were never meant to become your identity.
Culture says “I feel it, therefore I am it.” 

The Bible says something very different. In this episode we expose the dangerous modern idea that emotions should define who you are and show why feelings make wonderful servants but terrible masters.
You’ll learn: 

• Why “I feel anxious” so easily becomes “I am an anxious person” 

• The difference between primary and secondary emotions 

• Why “when something is hysterical, it’s historical” 

• How Cain, Peter, and Jesus Himself handled intense emotion 

• Practical questions that help you dig beneath the surface instead of being controlled by it 

• Why your identity is not what you feel it’s who Christ says you are
This conversation will help you stop being ruled by your emotions and start letting truth lead.
