God gave us emotions but He doesn’t want our emotions to drive the train of our lives. If God’s will for your life is driving the train, your emotions and thoughts will follow. But if your emotions are driving the train, what happens?  In this episode, Candace and Jennie talk about what it looks like to submit your will to Jesus with your day-to-day emotions, taking hold of your emotions, halting your thoughts from spiraling, and the power of speaking your emotions out loud to a trusted community.  Emotions are a gift from God but what you choose to do with them is up to you. Will you allow your emotions to drive your train? Listen to this conversation to hear why submitting your emotions you God’s will is the better choice.  Connect with Candace and Jennie: Candace on Instagram @candacecbure  Follow the Podcast on Instagram @candacecameronburepodcast  Follow the Podcast on TikTok @ccbpodcast Jennie on Instagram @jennieallen  Grab Jennie’s book: Untangle Your Emotions Thank you to this episode’s sponsors: Good Ranchers Someone Like You Movie Listener Question: Stephanie: How do you deal with someone who you aren’t compatible with but can’t avoid them because you live with them and it seems like the only option right now? What’s a healthy way you would set boundaries without feeling like the bad guy? Know what is on your side of the road and their side of the road. What can you control within your environment and emotions? You cannot control how healthy another person is, but you can control how healthy you are.  Tune in to hear how Jennie walked through a similar situation + what she did within it.

What are some things in your day to day life that can pull you toward fear or worry? There are so many reasons or moments in throughout the day that can open the door to those emotions.   “Of course you feel that way” is comforting and validating to every emotion we experience, including fear and worry. We all experience fear and with the world around us, the things we see or read or experience, it is no wonder we feel fearful. But if God is with us (even in our fear), we can experience peace, right?  In your fear, there are few questions that can help shift you towards peace, like:   What is my perspective of God?  Do I see God disappointed in my fear or comforting me?  Where am I looking for peace?  When God tells us not to be afraid, it’s because He wants to remind us that we need Him and that He is there for us. He does not scold us in our fear; He comforts us with truth. In this conversation, Candace and Jennie talk about fear – moments in their lives when they walked through fear and worry, how media and social media attribute to our fear, and how fear shifts to peace when your perspective of God changes.

Can you remember the first time you really felt a deep sense of sadness? Looking back on your younger self, what would you say to them now?  Sadness isn’t an emotion we always care to admit out loud or bring people into. But the truth is the Bible is full of characters dealing with dark and heavy circumstances; we see all kinds of people – including Jesus – feeling AND expressing their fear, loneliness, and anxiety, while they faithfully pursued God’s heart.  In this vulnerable conversation, Candace and Jennie share their earliest memories related to sadness, how depression has impacted their lives, and the pressures we all face to smile through the low times - and just be happy.  If you are struggling with depression, or you know someone who is, listen in with grace + compassion. You are not alone, this is for you.  Connect with Candace and Jennie: Candace on Instagram @candacecbure  Follow the Podcast on Instagram @candacecameronburepodcast  Follow the Podcast on TikTok @ccbpodcast Jennie on Instagram @jennieallen  Grab Jennie’s book: Untangle Your Emotions Thank you to this episode’s sponsors:  Good Ranchers Someone Like You Movie

When we think of anger, we don’t often think of it as a God-given emotion … but it is. There’s nothing in scripture that says “Don’t get angry.” Instead, we are encouraged to be slow to anger. But what does it mean to be slow to anger?  In this week’s conversation, Candace and Jennie are digging into anger: what it is, why it is better to be honest about it rather than hide it, strategies that have helped them slow down in their anger, and ways anger can be destructive. Remember, we are to be “slow to anger” but also not to sin in our anger. Listen in to hear more!

Are you an emotional person? Feelings are meant to be felt. Emotions are healthy + vulnerability is powerful! They are God-given, so they are GOOD. But seeing all emotions are good can be challenging, especially feelings like sadness or anger. Do you see your emotions as good or bad?  In the first episode of this season, Candace + Jennie are laying the foundation for emotional health. They talk about how emotions connect us to God and others, why feeling hard or deep emotions points back to something that may be unaddressed beneath the surface, and the 3 C’s of emotional response: Control, Cope, Conceal.   As you listen in, ask yourself: what are the emotions I have felt this week? The first step to emotional health is being able to name them.

Mental health is the same as physical health – a bodily experience. That being said, we experience mental illness differently than physical illness because when it comes to our mental health, it challenges our identity. It’s healthy to have emotions and feel them because they’re part of our bodily experience. But how do we respond to them? How do we navigate them? How do we care for our minds well?  Today, Candace is joined by Dr. Anita Phillips to talk about mental health, and while this is a topic that many are afraid to talk about … it is a needed + valuable conversation.   Did you know that mental health and faith go hand in hand? Jesus has expressed his emotions in many ways throughout His life on earth. He never avoided them and never repented of them. Why?
