It Doesn’t Have To Feel Like A Roller Coaster
Length: 4 minutes
“One day, we feel solid on what the Lord’s speaking to us, rejoicing in the gospel, and the next day we’re moved from the good news at the first sign of adversity!” This doesn’t have to be the story of your life, because there’s a simple explanation for this.

What You Fear Isn’t Real – Part 2: Open Eyes
Length: 10 minutes | Download >
In our last part, we showed that Jesus delivered us from everything we could be afraid of. Therefore, if we are still afraid, we are only afraid because of what we’re not seeing of Jesus’ provision. That is a universal truth that applies to every person, in every situation. You are not the exception. People only fear because of what they’re not seeing about Jesus. That is the only source (Isaiah 26:3).

What You Fear Isn’t Real – Part 1
Length: 12 minutes | Download >
Some people say that fear is an acronym for “False Evidence Appearing Real.” But that’s not necessarily so. The evidence you’re looking at may be very real. What isn’t real is your interpretation of the evidence. I can prove that to you from scripture.

Strengthen That Weary Soul!
Length: 8 minutes
Apart from Jesus, how does a human body get tired? By doing hard things over and over again. How does a human soul get tired? By looking at hard things over and over again. How do you strengthen a tired soul? By looking at lovely, easy things in Jesus.

The Answer To Pride And Guilt Is The Same
Length: 5 Minutes | Download>
Most everyone sees pride as an emotion that is built on self-reliance, but guilt is just the same. Pride is just self-reliance with the belief that you’re succeeding. Guilt is self-reliance with the belief that you’re failing. Both are self-reliance which we need to trade for Jesus-reliance.

Reality Check (It’s Too Good To Close Your Eyes)
Length: 5 minutes
People without Jesus need constant “escapes from reality.” They try to drown out the reality of their world with things like drugs, alcohol, parties, TV, video games, vacations, and even sleep. They are happiest when they are not remembering the real world, but for a believer, it’s all the contrary. We are happiest when our eyes are opened to our world.

Steady Emotions – Part 3: Relationships
Length: 5 minutes
Christians tend to be very family oriented, which is a good thing, because we have a responsibility to our family first. But Christians also tend to think that taking joy from your physical family or friends is something of a virtue. This is simply not correct.

Steady Emotions – Part 2: Manifestations
Length: 4 minutes
The Lord doesn’t want us to take our joy from anything that is changing. In our last part we mentioned the instability and inaccuracy of people’s opinion of us. But did you know that God doesn’t even want us to take our joy from manifestations of the Holy Spirit? That may sound strange, but it’s absolutely true.

Steady Emotions – Part 1: Acceptance
Length: 3 minutes
Do you know why people’s rejection takes such a toll on us sometimes? It’s because many of us trust in people’s opinion of us when they are accepting us. We value their opinion so much when they compliment us. And so, when people reject us or criticize us, we have trained our mind to value a man’s opinion of our worth.

His Post For Your Trauma
Length: 10 minutes
There are a lot of different labels that people can give to what is perceived as the aftermath of something traumatic happening. I believe that the biggest reason why the emotional effects of an event linger with people for years, is because they have yet to be given a solution to that initial problem. They have yet to be given an answer to that initial question. And so, when life hits them with a problem, and to this day they still don’t have a resolution, the emotional effects linger. Thank God, there is an easy solution in Jesus.
