In this week's Weekly Watch from Contending for the Word, Dave Jenkins addresses a critical issue shaping much of modern Christianity: emotionalism, the tendency to elevate feelings above the unchanging truth of Scripture. The Bible teaches that emotions are a good gift from God, yet they make terrible masters. When emotions sit on the throne of our hearts, they distort our view of God, cloud discernment, and pull us away from biblical truth. But when submitted to Scripture, emotions become instruments of worship rather than sources of confusion. Through passages like Jeremiah 17:9, 2 Timothy 4:3–4, Psalm 42, John 17:17 , and John 4:24 , Dave explains how the Word of God renews our minds, shapes our affections, and anchors our discernment in Christ instead of in fluctuating feelings. This episode will help you: • Understand the difference between biblical emotion and destructive emotionalism • Test your feelings by the Word of God • Engage both heart and mind in worship • Pursue spiritual maturity rather than spiritual highs • Stand firm in the truth when emotions fluctuate If this episode encourages you, please share it with others.
