      Product Description

      LifeSkills Publications Emotions are such a mysterious gift. They take us to heights of ecstasy. They dash us on the rocks of despair. They can bind us together and tear us apart. They can move some to noble acts of courage and self-sacrifice and in others, they are the force behind terrible acts of evil and destruction. Why did God make us this way? How are we supposed to manage this wonderful and mystifying gift we call emotions? In his new book Why Did God Give Us Emotions?, author Reneau Peurifoy takes a detailed look at the many sources of our emotional responses and the role emotions play in our thoughts, actions, relationships with others and relationship with God. Peurifoy holds a Masters in counseling and attended Fuller Theological Seminary. Why Did God Give Us Emotions? is a book twenty years in the making, based on Peurifoys focused study, counseling experiences and growing maturity in the faith.

He focuses on four main aspects of emotions: their subjective nature, their physical side, their mental side and their spiritual side. He then shows how each of these aspects must be addressed if true healing of emotional issues is to take place. Why Did God Give Us Emotions? addresses topics like: Are some emotions good and others bad? The role of medications in treating emotional problems How our core beliefs affect our interpretation of events How emotions are the true window into our souls How to stop hiding from taboo emotions What keeps us from hearing God The role emotions play in becoming the person God wants us to become There is certainly no shortage of counseling and self-help books lining the shelves of Christian bookstores today. Why Did God Give Us Emotions? is destined to distinguish itself from the rest. With simple, straightforward verbiage no po
