“If you notice yourself having a disproportionate reaction to something, pay attention to it.”
“You can’t really help anyone past the point that you’ve gone, so as a pastor or a leader, the very most important thing you will ever do is to go as deep and as far and as close as you can to Jesus. And Jesus lives with the brokenhearted.”
“Start to notice how you feel. And for some people, that is revolutionary.”
“One of the greatest enemies to us actually doing this or to living this way regularly is that we judge our emotions. And so my hope and my prayer is that this work will help people stop doing that, that they’ll see their emotions as gifts rather than burdens.”
“There’s still the model of Christ to say we can feel these things without them mastering our lives.”
