Every pastor, theologian, and counselor needs to read this book.”

“Far too often when dealing with negative emotions we divide body and soul, not seeing individuals holistically. I believe this book will greatly benefit the church.”
Laura Wifler
ofounder of Risen Motherhood; podcaster; coauthor, Risen Motherhood: Gospel Hope for Everyday Moments
“A careful, scholarly piece of retrieval theology, it judiciously draws on the riches of the historical tradition in conversation with contemporary philosophy, neuroscience, and psychology, in order to develop a constructive theology of the emotions for today.”
Derek Rishmawy
RUF Campus Minister at UC Irvine; PhD candidate at Trinity Evangelical Divinity School; cohost of the Mere Fidelity podcast
“Emotions and embodiment are two vital aspects of the human experience, and yet far too often Christian accounts have pitted them against one another in problematic ways. Thankfully, Matthew LaPine’s volume pushes us to avoid picking between a psychological account and a theological one, but instead aims to help us see them together in a fresh way.”
