Follow Your Heart? How Our Emotions Can Lead Us Astray

Our guest host today is Fortis Institute Fellow Libby Glosson from The Better Way Podcast!

Segment 1

• Culture says “follow your feelings,” while influencers say “crush them”, and neither is biblical.

• The Stoic mindset promises control, but offers counterfeit freedom.

• God feels holy emotions – we shouldn’t be afraid of ours.

Segment 2

• The Bible doesn’t say “suck it up”, but submit emotions to truth.

• Even “hidden” feelings like anger or fear can be sinful if they contradict God’s Word.

• What do your emotions reveal about what you worship?

Segment 3

• Emotional exhibitionism turns private feelings into public performances.

• Oversharing isn’t always authenticity—it can be manipulation masked as vulnerability.

• Biblical modesty isn’t just about clothing, but we carry our hearts, too.

Segment 4

• What does it mean to show our emotions indecently?

• True modesty humbles the heart—no gushing, no tantrums, no self-advertising.

• Sanctification shapes not just your mind and behavior, but your emotions too.
