How can we thoughtfully approach ministry at the intersection of worship, anxiety, and emotions? In this week’s conversation on FrontStage BackStage, host Jason Daye is joined by the Rev. Dr. J. Michael Jordan. Michael is an ordained Wesleyan pastor who serves in pastoral ministry and is also a professor of Bible and theology at Houghton College. His most recent book is titled, “Worship in an Age of Anxiety.” Together, Michael and Jason explore the importance of considering how the ways we preach, teach, worship, and gather relate to anxiety. Michael also shares how rethinking our theology of emotions can possibly impact the way we serve, ensuring that we’re honoring God and not simply manipulating emotions.
