Mixed Emotions: Bringing Balance to the Experience of God's Presence (Paperback)

Emotional experiences with God are an on-going controversy within the Christian world. Many people avoid them entirely, thinking they are at best irrele- vant and at worst damaging. Still others over-empha- size them, looking down on others with a different or lesser experience. Both errors grieve God's heart and divide the Church. Mixed Emotions brings balance to this touchy subject by taking a fresh look at biblical stories most Christians have known for years but have taken for granted. In an easy-to-read, coffee-shop style, Dave Wernli stresses the importance of experiencing God without letting the experience become an end in itself. Dave shows us how to steward the experience rightly, building up the Body of Christ instead of tearing it down. Come take this dangerous journey by daring to experience God with your whole being including your emotions in balance where the Prince of Peace reigns. You will never be the same
