But in the church, not all emotions are equal. At certain times and concerning certain topics, admitting that you have feelings, particularly the “wrong” feelings, is tantamount to admitting the Devil has got a hold of you. Yet at another time and concerning another topic, you may be accused of not being godly enough if you don’t express emotions (by which I mean, of course, the “right” emotions for a Christian, for the particular moment, and for your gender).
