The Emotional Jesus

Mastering the Difficult Emotions of Life

We think of Jesus as the all-powerful God of creation, the essence and glory of His Father, and the heir of all things. This book invites you to take an in-depth look at Jesus as Immanuel. The One who walked and breathed in a human body and experienced the ebb and flow of difficult emotions. In this writing you will see a portrait of Jesus conveying what it looks like for God to live as a man. That is exactly what He did. He left His Godly attributes in Heaven and came to earth to live in human flesh. Have you ever rehearsed the stories you have known about Jesus from the Bible and then wondered, “What would He do if He was in my shoes?”

Come along with me as we probe into scripture in order to discover how Jesus handled the emotionally charged events of life. You may be surprised at what you discover. Life was emotional and challenging for Jesus just as it can be for you and I today. This is a comprehensive look at how Jesus walked in human shoes. What would it be like Jesus to do and how would He respond if He felt completely and totally hopeless, especially when life didn't turn out the way it was supposed to? Was He ever so disgusted that it made Him sick to His stomach? What if He was overcome by sadness or overwhelmed by shame? What would He have done then? Join me as we discover how He reacted, responded and stayed true to His heart while facing the difficulties of life.
