In a culture that often equates emotional intensity with spiritual depth, how can we discern genuine faith and worship from mere emotional hype? This episode dives into the critical difference between emotions—the natural, God-given responses to life—and emotionalism, a worldview that places feelings above truth, sometimes to the detriment of our spiritual lives. We’ll discuss why emotions alone can’t be the foundation for spiritual truth, looking at common misconceptions like confusing a pastor’s passion with anointing or mistaking emotional peace as confirmation of answered prayer.
Drawing insights from theological giants like Jonathan Edwards and exploring biblical counsel on sobriety and self-control, we’ll explore why emotions must be balanced by a sound mind and grounded in Scripture. We also touch on how music shapes our beliefs and how a focus on emotional intensity in worship can impact our understanding of God.
Join us for a thought-provoking conversation that aims to reclaim a balanced view of emotions in faith and worship, encouraging you to embrace both mind and heart in your walk with God.

Hey Guys, Josh Lewis here. Have you ever wondered if the miraculous gifts of the Holy Spirit—like prophecy, healing, and tongues—really stopped after the apostles? Cessationists claim they vanished throughout church history, but that's a myth. In Remnant Radio’s new ebook, History of Spiritual Gifts: The Myth of Cessationism, I dive into church history to reveal the active use of spiritual gifts by early church fathers
