Life Today with James Robison | Anita Phillips - Our War With Emotions | December 18, 2024

>> when jesus expressed his emotional pain,
00:00:06.963 --> 00:00:09.165
He never held it back.
00:00:09.165 --> 00:00:11.167
He didn't apologize,
00:00:11.167 --> 00:00:13.169
He never repented.
00:00:13.169 --> 00:00:15.171
He cried in front of the tomb of lazarus
00:00:15.171 --> 00:00:17.173
In front of people.
00:00:17.173 --> 00:00:19.175
Trauma therapist, dr. anita phillips reminds us
00:00:19.175 --> 00:00:21.244
That the emotions god created us to have
00:00:21.244 --> 00:00:23.246
Are good for us.
00:00:23.246 --> 00:00:25.248
>> just because you have faith for the outcome
00:00:25.248 --> 00:00:27.250
Doesn't mean you don't have pain in the process.
00:00:27.250 --> 00:00:29.385
And jesus expressed the pain of the process
00:00:29.385 --> 00:00:32.288
Because he was wearing a human body.
00:00:32.288 --> 00:00:34.390

Because you're unbelievable! this book has meant so much to me.

This book has meant so much to me. it is going to be something
00:01:48.464 --> 00:01:49.566
Has meant so much to me. it is going to be something i go back to
00:01:49.632 --> 00:01:50.767
It is going to be something i go back to many times throughout the year
00:01:50.833 --> 00:01:51.968
I go back to many times throughout the year and revisit.
00:01:52.035 --> 00:01:53.102
Many times throughout the year and revisit. and i think many people
00:01:53.169 --> 00:01:54.170
And revisit. and i think many people are going to feel the same.
00:01:54.237 --> 00:01:55.371
And i think many people are going to feel the same. but i want to start first
00:01:55.438 --> 00:01:56.539
Are going to feel the same. but i want to start first by unpacking just a little bit
00:01:56.606 --> 00:01:57.740
But i want to start first by unpacking just a little bit about your life, your journey,
00:01:57.807 --> 00:01:58.841
By unpacking just a little bit about your life, your journey, and how you even got
00:01:58.908 --> 00:02:00.176
About your life, your journey, and how you even got to this place of wanting
00:02:00.243 --> 00:02:01.411
And how you even got to this place of wanting to be a trauma therapist.
00:02:01.477 --> 00:02:03.279
To this place of wanting to be a trauma therapist. anita: i think everybody
00:02:03.346 --> 00:02:04.614
To be a trauma therapist. anita: i think everybody in trauma therapy got there
00:02:04.681 --> 00:02:05.682
I think
00:02:07.483 --> 00:02:08.551
I think we're kind of led by our pain
00:02:08.618 --> 00:02:09.686
We're kind of led by our pain to find that healing
00:02:09.752 --> 00:02:10.820
To find that healing for ourselves
00:02:10.887 --> 00:02:11.854
For ourselves and other people.
00:02:11.921 --> 00:02:12.889
And other people. for me, it began in childhood.
00:02:12.956 --> 00:02:14.023
For me, it began in childhood. i'm a pastor's kid,
00:02:14.090 --> 00:02:15.091
But that wasn't the trauma.
00:02:16.659 --> 00:02:17.694
But that wasn't the trauma. tammy: are you sure?
00:02:17.760 --> 00:02:18.995
But that wasn't the trauma. tammy: are you sure? anita: i'm sure.
00:02:19.062 --> 00:02:20.163
Tammy: are you sure? anita: i'm sure. i was really blessed
00:02:20.230 --> 00:02:21.297
Anita: i'm sure. i was really blessed in that area.
00:02:21.364 --> 00:02:22.465
I was really blessed in that area. but i had an older sister
00:02:22.532 --> 00:02:23.633
In that area. but i had an older sister who developed the symptoms
00:02:23.700 --> 00:02:24.801
But i had an older sister who developed the symptoms of a serious mental illness
00:02:24.867 --> 00:02:26.002
Who developed the symptoms of a serious mental illness when she was still very young.
00:02:26.069 --> 00:02:27.270
Of a serious mental illness when she was still very young. and so we shared a bedroom.
00:02:27.337 --> 00:02:28.371
When she was still very young. and so we shared a bedroom. and when i was about six
00:02:28.438 --> 00:02:29.472
And so we shared a bedroom. and when i was about six and she was about 11 or 12,
00:02:29.539 --> 00:02:30.773
And when i was about six and she was about 11 or 12, she woke up
00:02:30.840 --> 00:02:31.941
And she was about 11 or 12, she woke up in the middle of the night
00:02:32.008 --> 00:02:33.109
She woke up in the middle of the night one night screaming --
00:02:33.176 --> 00:02:34.277
In the middle of the night one night screaming -- just screaming.
00:02:34.344 --> 00:02:35.378
One night screaming -- just screaming. her eyes were wide open.
00:02:35.445 --> 00:02:36.479
Just screaming. her eyes were wide open. she's staring
00:02:36.546 --> 00:02:37.647
Her eyes were wide open. she's staring at our bedroom door,
00:02:37.714 --> 00:02:38.748
She's staring at our bedroom door, and she says,
00:02:38.815 --> 00:02:39.849
At our bedroom door, and she says, "anita, there's a demon
00:02:39.916 --> 00:02:40.950
And she says, "anita, there's a demon in the door."
00:02:41.017 --> 00:02:42.051
"anita, there's a demon in the door." well, hey!
00:02:42.118 --> 00:02:43.152
In the door." well, hey! this is a real possibility.
00:02:43.219 --> 00:02:44.287
Well, hey! this is a real possibility. we are christians,
00:02:44.354 --> 00:02:45.388
This is a real possibility. we are christians, we understand
00:02:45.455 --> 00:02:46.489
We are christians, we understand spiritual attacks and warfare.
00:02:46.556 --> 00:02:47.590
We understand spiritual attacks and warfare. so i thought,
00:02:47.657 --> 00:02:48.725
Spiritual attacks and warfare. so i thought, maybe that's true
00:02:48.791 --> 00:02:49.826
So i thought, maybe that's true but it is still terrifying.
00:02:49.892 --> 00:02:51.027
Maybe that's true but it is still terrifying. my parents
00:02:51.094 --> 00:02:52.061
But it is still terrifying. my parents heard her screaming.
00:02:52.128 --> 00:02:53.129
My parents heard her screaming. they woke up, they came,
00:02:53.196 --> 00:02:54.163
Heard her screaming. they woke up, they came, they prayed, and eventually,
00:02:54.230 --> 00:02:55.231
They woke up, they came, they prayed, and eventually, she peaked at the door
00:02:55.298 --> 00:02:56.266
They prayed, and eventually, she peaked at the door and she didn't see
00:02:56.332 --> 00:02:57.333
She peaked at the door and she didn't see this demon anymore.
00:02:57.400 --> 00:02:58.368
And she didn't see this demon anymore. and we thought that's it!
00:02:58.434 --> 00:02:59.402
This demon anymore. and we thought that's it! it's done.
00:02:59.469 --> 00:03:00.470
And we thought that's it! it's done. but in the weeks
00:03:00.536 --> 00:03:01.504
It's done. but in the weeks and the months to come
00:03:01.571 --> 00:03:02.572
But in the weeks and the months to come it would happen
00:03:02.639 --> 00:03:03.606
And the months to come it would happen again and again,
00:03:03.673 --> 00:03:04.674
It would happen again and again, and it became hard for me
00:03:04.741 --> 00:03:05.708
Again and again, and it became hard for me to sleep.
00:03:05.775 --> 00:03:06.776
And it became hard for me to sleep. i had a certain anxiousness
00:03:06.843 --> 00:03:07.810
To sleep. i had a certain anxiousness that i would wake up
00:03:07.877 --> 00:03:08.878
I had a certain anxiousness that i would wake up to these screams.
00:03:08.945 --> 00:03:09.946
That i would wake up to these screams. so that was an early trauma
00:03:10.013 --> 00:03:11.247
To these screams. so that was an early trauma for me.
00:03:11.314 --> 00:03:12.282
So that was an early trauma for me. and eventually,
00:03:12.348 --> 00:03:13.316
For me. and eventually, it did seem to quiet.
00:03:13.383 --> 00:03:14.384
And eventually, it did seem to quiet. but actually what happened was
00:03:14.450 --> 00:03:15.418
It did seem to quiet. but actually what happened was someone in the neighborhood
00:03:15.485 --> 00:03:16.486
But actually what happened was someone in the neighborhood introduced her to drugs
00:03:16.552 --> 00:03:17.587
Someone in the neighborhood introduced her to drugs and she found out
00:03:17.654 --> 00:03:18.588
Introduced her to drugs and she found out that it quieted the voices
00:03:18.655 --> 00:03:19.622
And she found out that it quieted the voices we didn't know
00:03:19.689 --> 00:03:20.657
That it quieted the voices we didn't know she was hearing.
00:03:20.723 --> 00:03:21.691
We didn't know she was hearing. it stopped the hallucinations.
00:03:21.758 --> 00:03:22.725
She was hearing. it stopped the hallucinations. and that's too much
00:03:22.792 --> 00:03:23.760
It stopped the hallucinations. and that's too much for any child to resist,
00:03:23.826 --> 00:03:24.794
And that's too much for any child to resist, of course,
00:03:24.861 --> 00:03:25.828
For any child to resist, of course, that torment being quieted.
00:03:25.895 --> 00:03:26.863
Of course, that torment being quieted. and unfortunately,
00:03:26.929 --> 00:03:27.897
That torment being quieted. and unfortunately, she became addicted
00:03:27.964 --> 00:03:28.965
And unfortunately, she became addicted to those drugs
00:03:29.032 --> 00:03:30.066
She became addicted to those drugs and lost decades of her life
00:03:30.133 --> 00:03:31.134
To those drugs and lost decades of her life on the streets.
00:03:31.200 --> 00:03:32.235
And lost decades of her life on the streets. and so, as i was growing up
00:03:32.302 --> 00:03:33.303
On the streets. and so, as i was growing up watching my parents
00:03:33.369 --> 00:03:34.404
And so, as i was growing up watching my parents ministering to others
00:03:34.470 --> 00:03:35.471
Watching my parents ministering to others but weep at home
00:03:35.538 --> 00:03:36.572
Ministering to others but weep at home about what was going on
00:03:36.639 --> 00:03:37.640
But weep at home about what was going on with my older sister, valerie,
00:03:37.707 --> 00:03:38.741
About what was going on with my older sister, valerie, i wanted to know,
00:03:38.808 --> 00:03:39.876
With my older sister, valerie, i wanted to know, what is happening here?
00:03:39.942 --> 00:03:41.144
I wanted to know, what is happening here? so i was led into this field
00:03:41.210 --> 00:03:43.579
What is happening here? so i was led into this field to explain how people suffer,
00:03:43.646 --> 00:03:45.214
So i was led into this field to explain how people suffer, how they break,
00:03:45.281 --> 00:03:46.382
To explain how people suffer, how they break, and how we get better.
00:03:46.449 --> 00:03:47.450
How they break, and how we get better. but i also had
00:03:47.517 --> 00:03:48.551
And how we get better. but i also had a persistent question for god,
00:03:48.618 --> 00:03:50.253
But i also had a persistent question for god, what does your bible teach us
00:03:50.320 --> 00:03:52.388
A persistent question for god, what does your bible teach us about human behavior?
00:03:52.455 --> 00:03:53.656
What does your bible teach us about human behavior? about the understanding
00:03:53.723 --> 00:03:54.924
About human behavior? about the understanding of who we are,
00:03:54.991 --> 00:03:56.059
About the understanding of who we are, how we were made?
00:03:56.125 --> 00:03:57.260
Of who we are, how we were made? because he's the creator.
00:03:57.327 --> 00:03:58.661
How we were made? because he's the creator. and i was told
00:03:58.728 --> 00:03:59.862
Because he's the creator. and i was told by lots of smart people
00:03:59.929 --> 00:04:01.097
And i was told by lots of smart people that the bible didn't speak
00:04:01.164 --> 00:04:02.298
By lots of smart people that the bible didn't speak to these things
00:04:02.365 --> 00:04:03.499
That the bible didn't speak to these things but i never believed it.
00:04:03.566 --> 00:04:04.634
To these things but i never believed it. and it turns out
00:04:04.701 --> 00:04:05.768
But i never believed it. and it turns out i was right to trust god
00:04:05.835 --> 00:04:06.836
And it turns out i was right to trust god because it is in the book.
00:04:06.903 --> 00:04:08.604
I was right to trust god because it is in the book. tammy: i'm so glad
00:04:08.671 --> 00:04:09.839
Because it is in the book. tammy: i'm so glad you didn't believe it!
00:04:09.906 --> 00:04:10.840
Tammy: i'm so glad you didn't believe it! and i'm so glad you dug in.
00:04:10.907 --> 00:04:12.875
You didn't believe it! and i'm so glad you dug in. you talk so much
00:04:12.942 --> 00:04:13.910
And i'm so glad you dug in. you talk so much about emotions
00:04:13.976 --> 00:04:14.977
You talk so much about emotions which is a huge topic for me
00:04:15.044 --> 00:04:16.746
About emotions which is a huge topic for me because i'm an emotional girl.
00:04:16.813 --> 00:04:18.214
Which is a huge topic for me because i'm an emotional girl. and i love that.
00:04:18.281 --> 00:04:19.816
To my emotions.
00:04:21.384 --> 00:04:22.452
To my emotions. i love that so much
00:04:22.518 --> 00:04:23.553
I love that so much because i think i've been told
00:04:23.619 --> 00:04:24.721
Because i think i've been told so many times in my life,
00:04:24.787 --> 00:04:26.356
So many times in my life, "you're too emotional.
00:04:26.422 --> 00:04:27.623
"you're too emotional. suppress your emotions.
00:04:27.690 --> 00:04:28.891
I don't even know
00:04:30.693 --> 00:04:31.728
I don't even know how it developed if it's
00:04:31.794 --> 00:04:32.862
I don't even know how it developed if it's just always been there.
00:04:32.929 --> 00:04:33.996
How it developed if it's just always been there. maybe you can tell me today
00:04:34.063 --> 00:04:35.131
Just always been there. maybe you can tell me today and i can send you a check.
00:04:35.198 --> 00:04:36.366
Maybe you can tell me today and i can send you a check. [laughing]
00:04:36.432 --> 00:04:37.500
And i can send you a check. [laughing] but i feel like, i always say,
00:04:37.567 --> 00:04:38.735
[laughing] but i feel like, i always say, my emotions are right here
00:04:38.801 --> 00:04:39.936
But i feel like, i always say, my emotions are right here and so is my giggle.
00:04:40.002 --> 00:04:41.237
My emotions are right here and so is my giggle. like my joy,
00:04:41.304 --> 00:04:42.438
And so is my giggle. like my joy, it's so close to the surface
00:04:42.505 --> 00:04:44.607
Like my joy, it's so close to the surface all the time.
00:04:44.674 --> 00:04:46.008
It's so close to the surface all the time. what do you say to somebody
00:04:46.075 --> 00:04:48.611
All the time. what do you say to somebody that has been told
00:04:48.678 --> 00:04:50.079
What do you say to somebody that has been told that your emotions are bad.
00:04:50.146 --> 00:04:52.415
That has been told that your emotions are bad. how do you -- and you went
00:04:52.482 --> 00:04:53.683
That your emotions are bad. how do you -- and you went into the word of god
00:04:53.750 --> 00:04:54.917
How do you -- and you went into the word of god to find out are they bad
00:04:54.984 --> 00:04:56.018
Into the word of god to find out are they bad or are they good?
00:04:56.085 --> 00:04:57.053
To find out are they bad or are they good? did jesus have emotions?
00:04:57.120 --> 00:04:58.154
Or are they good? did jesus have emotions? anita: jesus was
00:04:58.221 --> 00:04:59.322
Did jesus have emotions? anita: jesus was extremely emotional.
00:04:59.389 --> 00:05:00.456
Anita: jesus was extremely emotional. and this is
00:05:00.523 --> 00:05:01.591
Extremely emotional. and this is what was so exciting
00:05:01.657 --> 00:05:02.658
And this is what was so exciting about this journey.
00:05:02.725 --> 00:05:03.693
I was in scripture trying
00:05:04.861 --> 00:05:05.928
I was in scripture trying to understand my sister's
00:05:05.995 --> 00:05:07.096
To understand my sister's illness, the holy spirit
00:05:07.163 --> 00:05:08.231
Illness, the holy spirit in all his wisdom took me
00:05:08.297 --> 00:05:09.332
In all his wisdom took me to understand wellness.
00:05:09.399 --> 00:05:10.400
To understand wellness. what did it look like
00:05:10.466 --> 00:05:11.467
What did it look like for us to be well?
00:05:11.534 --> 00:05:12.535
For us to be well? you can't fix something that's
00:05:12.602 --> 00:05:13.603
You can't fix something that's broken if you don't
00:05:13.669 --> 00:05:14.670
Broken if you don't know what it looked like
00:05:14.737 --> 00:05:15.705
Know what it looked like before it broke.
00:05:15.772 --> 00:05:16.739
Before it broke. otherwise,
00:05:16.806 --> 00:05:17.807
Otherwise, you're just guessing and
00:05:17.874 --> 00:05:18.875
You're just guessing and a lot of times in psychology
00:05:18.941 --> 00:05:19.942
A lot of times in psychology and as professionals,
00:05:20.009 --> 00:05:20.977
And as professionals, without god's insight
00:05:21.043 --> 00:05:22.011
Without god's insight we're guessing
00:05:22.078 --> 00:05:23.045
We're guessing on what it means to be well.
00:05:23.112 --> 00:05:24.147
On what it means to be well. what the lord showed me
00:05:24.213 --> 00:05:25.348
Like gardens.
00:05:26.616 --> 00:05:27.750
Like gardens. when i was taking
00:05:27.817 --> 00:05:28.918
Like gardens. when i was taking a neuroscience class
00:05:28.985 --> 00:05:30.052
When i was taking a neuroscience class in grad school
00:05:30.119 --> 00:05:31.087
A neuroscience class in grad school for the first time
00:05:31.154 --> 00:05:32.088
In grad school for the first time i saw a picture of a neuron
00:05:32.155 --> 00:05:33.222
For the first time i saw a picture of a neuron and that neuron
00:05:33.289 --> 00:05:34.257
I saw a picture of a neuron and that neuron looked like like a seedling.
00:05:34.323 --> 00:05:35.525
And that neuron looked like like a seedling. and i was so shocked.
00:05:35.591 --> 00:05:36.592
Looked like like a seedling. and i was so shocked. i said, man,
00:05:36.659 --> 00:05:37.794
And i was so shocked. i said, man, if i believe in the god
00:05:37.860 --> 00:05:38.961
I said, man, if i believe in the god of my sunday school book,
00:05:39.028 --> 00:05:40.229
If i believe in the god of my sunday school book, that created the heavens
00:05:40.296 --> 00:05:41.297
Of my sunday school book, that created the heavens and the earth,
00:05:41.364 --> 00:05:42.331
That created the heavens and the earth, who made plants on day three,
00:05:42.398 --> 00:05:43.699
And the earth, who made plants on day three, and us on day six,
00:05:43.766 --> 00:05:45.201
Who made plants on day three, and us on day six, i can't avoid the truth
00:05:45.268 --> 00:05:47.703
And us on day six, i can't avoid the truth of these plants and neurons
00:05:47.770 --> 00:05:49.005
I can't avoid the truth of these plants and neurons looking alike.
00:05:49.071 --> 00:05:50.206
Of these plants and neurons looking alike. and so i believed
00:05:50.273 --> 00:05:51.407
Looking alike. and so i believed that god was being intentional
00:05:51.474 --> 00:05:52.475
And so i believed that god was being intentional because that's his character.
00:05:52.542 --> 00:05:53.643
That god was being intentional because that's his character. and so i dove
00:05:53.709 --> 00:05:54.811
Because that's his character. and so i dove into scripture saying,
00:05:54.877 --> 00:05:55.945
And so i dove into scripture saying, why would he talk about plants
00:05:56.012 --> 00:05:57.079
Into scripture saying, why would he talk about plants the way he does with us?
00:05:57.146 --> 00:05:58.247
Why would he talk about plants the way he does with us? we'll be like a tree
00:05:58.314 --> 00:05:59.415
The way he does with us? we'll be like a tree planted by rivers of water.
00:05:59.482 --> 00:06:00.616
We'll be like a tree planted by rivers of water. i'll plant you in a good land.
00:06:00.683 --> 00:06:02.285
Planted by rivers of water. i'll plant you in a good land. isaiah 58:11 says, "you'll be
00:06:02.351 --> 00:06:03.586
I'll plant you in a good land. isaiah 58:11 says, "you'll be a well-watered garden."
00:06:03.653 --> 00:06:05.154
Isaiah 58:11 says, "you'll be a well-watered garden." i said,
00:06:05.221 --> 00:06:06.322
A well-watered garden." i said, "my gosh, he meant it!"
00:06:06.389 --> 00:06:07.423
I said, "my gosh, he meant it!" because inside of us
00:06:07.490 --> 00:06:09.158
"my gosh, he meant it!" because inside of us our nervous system
00:06:09.225 --> 00:06:10.326
Because inside of us our nervous system is modeled after plants,
00:06:10.393 --> 00:06:11.694
Our nervous system is modeled after plants, and we are gardens.
00:06:11.761 --> 00:06:12.895
Is modeled after plants, and we are gardens. and in the parable
00:06:12.962 --> 00:06:14.030
And we are gardens. and in the parable of the sower, jesus puts
00:06:14.096 --> 00:06:15.131
And in the parable of the sower, jesus puts all the pieces together.
00:06:15.198 --> 00:06:16.265
Of the sower, jesus puts all the pieces together. he talks about a sower
00:06:16.332 --> 00:06:17.366
All the pieces together. he talks about a sower going out and sowing seeds.
00:06:17.433 --> 00:06:18.835
He talks about a sower going out and sowing seeds. those seeds are words.
00:06:18.901 --> 00:06:20.203
Going out and sowing seeds. those seeds are words. they fall on the soil.
00:06:20.269 --> 00:06:21.771
Those seeds are words. they fall on the soil. jesus says the soil
00:06:21.838 --> 00:06:23.072
They fall on the soil. jesus says the soil is the heart.
00:06:23.139 --> 00:06:24.407
Jesus says the soil is the heart. depending on
00:06:24.474 --> 00:06:25.575
Is the heart. depending on the emotional state,
00:06:25.641 --> 00:06:26.709
Depending on the emotional state, jesus describes
00:06:26.776 --> 00:06:27.844
The emotional state, jesus describes the different soil types
00:06:27.910 --> 00:06:28.911
Jesus describes the different soil types based on joy, anger, and fear.
00:06:28.978 --> 00:06:30.446
The different soil types based on joy, anger, and fear. depending on
00:06:30.513 --> 00:06:31.681
Based on joy, anger, and fear. depending on the emotional state,
00:06:31.747 --> 00:06:32.715
Depending on the emotional state, the seed's growth is affected.
00:06:32.782 --> 00:06:33.749
The emotional state, the seed's growth is affected. then the plant,
00:06:33.816 --> 00:06:34.817
The seed's growth is affected. then the plant, that's the mind,
00:06:34.884 --> 00:06:35.952
Then the plant, that's the mind, that's why neurons
00:06:36.018 --> 00:06:37.053
That's the mind, that's why neurons look like plants.
00:06:37.119 --> 00:06:38.087
That's why neurons look like plants. and then the fruit
00:06:38.154 --> 00:06:39.155
Look like plants. and then the fruit is what we do.
00:06:39.222 --> 00:06:40.323
And then the fruit is what we do. seed, soil, plant, fruit;
00:06:40.389 --> 00:06:41.491
Is what we do. seed, soil, plant, fruit; words, feelings,
00:06:41.557 --> 00:06:42.859
Seed, soil, plant, fruit; words, feelings, thoughts, behaviors.
00:06:42.925 --> 00:06:44.460
Words, feelings, thoughts, behaviors. it is that simple.
00:06:44.527 --> 00:06:45.728
Thoughts, behaviors. it is that simple. and so when we recognize
00:06:45.795 --> 00:06:47.029
It is that simple. and so when we recognize that the heart is the soil
00:06:47.096 --> 00:06:48.831
And so when we recognize that the heart is the soil of our lives then it means
00:06:48.898 --> 00:06:50.833
That the heart is the soil of our lives then it means what's going on with me
00:06:50.900 --> 00:06:52.134
Of our lives then it means what's going on with me emotionally,
00:06:52.201 --> 00:06:53.236
What's going on with me emotionally, my emotional well-being
00:06:53.302 --> 00:06:54.303
Emotionally, my emotional well-being affects every word spoken.
00:06:54.370 --> 00:06:56.138
My emotional well-being affects every word spoken. god's word,
00:06:56.205 --> 00:06:57.306
Affects every word spoken. god's word, my words to my children,
00:06:57.373 --> 00:06:58.908
God's word, my words to my children, our words to ourselves,
00:06:58.975 --> 00:07:00.109
My words to my children, our words to ourselves, every word spoken falls
00:07:00.176 --> 00:07:01.277
Our words to ourselves, every word spoken falls on the soil of our heart.
00:07:01.344 --> 00:07:02.778
Every word spoken falls on the soil of our heart. and our emotional well-being
00:07:02.845 --> 00:07:04.213
On the soil of our heart. and our emotional well-being determines what happens
00:07:04.280 --> 00:07:05.381
And our emotional well-being determines what happens to those words.
00:07:05.448 --> 00:07:06.415
Determines what happens to those words. and so the heart is the soil
00:07:06.482 --> 00:07:08.351
To those words. and so the heart is the soil of your life!
00:07:08.417 --> 00:07:09.852
And so the heart is the soil of your life! and we have seen emotions
00:07:09.919 --> 00:07:10.953
Of your life! and we have seen emotions as a problem,
00:07:11.020 --> 00:07:12.121
And we have seen emotions as a problem, as something
00:07:12.188 --> 00:07:13.222
As a problem, as something to separate ourselves from.
00:07:13.289 --> 00:07:14.323
As something to separate ourselves from. and people love
00:07:14.390 --> 00:07:15.391
To separate ourselves from. and people love to quote the scripture.
00:07:15.458 --> 00:07:16.459
And people love to quote the scripture. well, the bible says the heart
00:07:16.526 --> 00:07:17.593
To quote the scripture. well, the bible says the heart is desperately wicked.
00:07:17.660 --> 00:07:18.661
Well, the bible says the heart is desperately wicked. i'm like slow down.
00:07:18.728 --> 00:07:19.729
Is desperately wicked. i'm like slow down. it's one verse
00:07:19.795 --> 00:07:20.796
I'm like slow down. it's one verse and we're taking it
00:07:20.863 --> 00:07:21.864
It's one verse and we're taking it out the context, that's in
00:07:21.931 --> 00:07:22.932
And we're taking it out the context, that's in the book of jeremiah,
00:07:22.999 --> 00:07:24.066
Out the context, that's in the book of jeremiah, and we ignore that later
00:07:24.133 --> 00:07:25.134
The book of jeremiah, and we ignore that later in the book of jeremiah
00:07:25.201 --> 00:07:26.202
And we ignore that later in the book of jeremiah god says, "i'm going
00:07:26.269 --> 00:07:27.336
In the book of jeremiah god says, "i'm going to give you a new heart.
00:07:27.403 --> 00:07:28.337
God says, "i'm going to give you a new heart. i'm going to exchange
00:07:28.404 --> 00:07:29.472
To give you a new heart. i'm going to exchange your heart."
00:07:29.539 --> 00:07:30.606
I'm going to exchange your heart." so we're not walking around
00:07:30.673 --> 00:07:31.707
Your heart." so we're not walking around with desperately wicked hearts
00:07:31.774 --> 00:07:32.942
So we're not walking around with desperately wicked hearts especially if we know jesus.
00:07:33.009 --> 00:07:34.076
With desperately wicked hearts especially if we know jesus. then we've had that exchange.
00:07:34.143 --> 00:07:35.177
Especially if we know jesus. then we've had that exchange. so paying attention
00:07:35.244 --> 00:07:36.312
Then we've had that exchange. so paying attention to where we are emotionally
00:07:36.379 --> 00:07:37.580
So paying attention to where we are emotionally affects everything else
00:07:37.647 --> 00:07:39.081
To where we are emotionally affects everything else in our lives.
00:07:39.148 --> 00:07:40.416
Affects everything else in our lives. tammy: my goodness!
00:07:40.483 --> 00:07:41.584
In our lives. tammy: my goodness! dr. anita,
00:07:41.651 --> 00:07:42.752
Tammy: my goodness! dr. anita, there are so many things
00:07:42.818 --> 00:07:43.786
Dr. anita, there are so many things that you cover
00:07:43.853 --> 00:07:44.854
There are so many things that you cover just like that in the book,
00:07:44.921 --> 00:07:45.855
That you cover just like that in the book, the heart is deceitful.
00:07:45.922 --> 00:07:46.989
Just like that in the book, the heart is deceitful. there are so many things,
00:07:47.056 --> 00:07:48.224
The heart is deceitful. there are so many things, to me, like moments
00:07:48.291 --> 00:07:50.159
There are so many things, to me, like moments that will set people free,
00:07:50.226 --> 00:07:51.627
To me, like moments that will set people free, that we've hung on
00:07:51.694 --> 00:07:52.728
That will set people free, that we've hung on to certain things,
00:07:52.795 --> 00:07:53.930
That we've hung on to certain things, taken it out of context
00:07:53.996 --> 00:07:54.964
To certain things, taken it out of context and it's bound us --
00:07:55.031 --> 00:07:56.098
Taken it out of context and it's bound us -- anita: good intentions
00:07:56.165 --> 00:07:57.233
And it's bound us -- anita: good intentions but bad context.
00:07:57.300 --> 00:07:58.301
Anita: good intentions but bad context. tammy: yes!
00:07:58.367 --> 00:07:59.368
But bad context. tammy: yes! and it will set you free.
00:07:59.435 --> 00:08:00.536
Tammy: yes! and it will set you free. there are so many things

And it will set you free. there are so many things about your book.

There are so many things about your book. i've written down
00:08:02.772 --> 00:08:03.706
About your book. i've written down so many different things.
00:08:03.773 --> 00:08:04.840
I've written down so many different things. chapter one, you had me
00:08:04.907 --> 00:08:05.875
So many different things. chapter one, you had me out of the box, girl.
00:08:05.942 --> 00:08:07.009
"i grew up believing
00:08:08.177 --> 00:08:09.278
"i grew up believing that i was meant to harness
00:08:09.345 --> 00:08:11.013
That i was meant to harness the power of my mind,
00:08:11.080 --> 00:08:12.582
The power of my mind, to live well
00:08:12.648 --> 00:08:13.849
To live well and that emotions were nice
00:08:13.916 --> 00:08:15.384
Problematic."
00:08:17.520 --> 00:08:18.588
Problematic." so i love that
00:08:18.654 --> 00:08:20.089
Problematic." so i love that you have given me permission
00:08:20.156 --> 00:08:21.190
So i love that you have given me permission to say it's okay
00:08:21.257 --> 00:08:22.291
You have given me permission to say it's okay to be emotional.
00:08:22.358 --> 00:08:23.392
To say it's okay to be emotional. anita: we are all emotional.
00:08:23.459 --> 00:08:24.527
To be emotional. anita: we are all emotional. some of us are just less
00:08:24.594 --> 00:08:25.661
Anita: we are all emotional. some of us are just less in touch with it than others.
00:08:25.728 --> 00:08:26.796
Some of us are just less in touch with it than others. tammy: how do we keep it
00:08:26.862 --> 00:08:27.897
In touch with it than others. tammy: how do we keep it intact?
00:08:27.964 --> 00:08:28.898
Tammy: how do we keep it intact? how do we balance
00:08:28.965 --> 00:08:29.899
Intact? how do we balance those things?
00:08:29.966 --> 00:08:30.900
How do we balance those things? is balance even a word?
00:08:30.967 --> 00:08:31.901
Those things? is balance even a word? are we fighting for wellness
00:08:31.968 --> 00:08:32.902
Anita: i want us to take off
00:08:34.136 --> 00:08:35.371
Anita: i want us to take off all the restrictive words
00:08:35.438 --> 00:08:36.672
All the restrictive words we use for our emotions.
00:08:36.739 --> 00:08:38.941
We use for our emotions. balancing it, managing it,
00:08:39.008 --> 00:08:40.109
Balancing it, managing it, because we're presenting it
00:08:40.176 --> 00:08:41.444
Because we're presenting it as if it was a problem.
00:08:41.510 --> 00:08:43.212
Of your life.
00:08:44.480 --> 00:08:45.481
Of your life. if a plant, and imagine
00:08:45.548 --> 00:08:46.515
Of your life. if a plant, and imagine your mind is the plant,
00:08:46.582 --> 00:08:48.017
If a plant, and imagine your mind is the plant, if a plant is wilting,
00:08:48.084 --> 00:08:49.518
Your mind is the plant, if a plant is wilting, or a plant needs nourishment,
00:08:49.585 --> 00:08:51.520
If a plant is wilting, or a plant needs nourishment, what do you do?
00:08:51.587 --> 00:08:52.622
Or a plant needs nourishment, what do you do? you water the soil.
00:08:52.688 --> 00:08:53.823
What do you do? you water the soil. you don't spray the plant.
00:08:53.889 --> 00:08:54.991
You water the soil. you don't spray the plant. you put the fertilizer
00:08:55.057 --> 00:08:56.092
You don't spray the plant. you put the fertilizer in the soil, not on the plant.
00:08:56.158 --> 00:08:57.226
You put the fertilizer in the soil, not on the plant. so in the same way,
00:08:57.293 --> 00:08:58.461
In the soil, not on the plant. so in the same way, we go to our hearts.
00:08:58.527 --> 00:08:59.562
So in the same way, we go to our hearts. when the soil is dry again
00:08:59.629 --> 00:09:01.364
We go to our hearts. when the soil is dry again next week,
00:09:01.430 --> 00:09:02.665
When the soil is dry again next week, nobody gets mad at the soil.
00:09:02.732 --> 00:09:04.133
Next week, nobody gets mad at the soil. oh, my gosh!
00:09:04.200 --> 00:09:05.201
Nobody gets mad at the soil. oh, my gosh! i can't believe i have
00:09:05.267 --> 00:09:06.302
Oh, my gosh! i can't believe i have to water this soil again.
00:09:06.369 --> 00:09:07.370
I can't believe i have to water this soil again. this soil has to be managed!
00:09:07.436 --> 00:09:08.771
To water this soil again. this soil has to be managed! we just give it what it needs.
00:09:08.838 --> 00:09:09.839
This soil has to be managed! we just give it what it needs. we expect it to need.
00:09:09.905 --> 00:09:11.874
We just give it what it needs. we expect it to need. the same thing
00:09:11.941 --> 00:09:13.242
We expect it to need. the same thing is with our hearts --
00:09:13.309 --> 00:09:14.443
The same thing is with our hearts -- our hearts, our emotional pain
00:09:14.510 --> 00:09:15.645
Is with our hearts -- our hearts, our emotional pain gives us the information
00:09:15.711 --> 00:09:16.979
Our hearts, our emotional pain gives us the information about what we need.
00:09:17.046 --> 00:09:18.748
Gives us the information about what we need. when we're sad
00:09:18.814 --> 00:09:19.849
About what we need. when we're sad we need connection,
00:09:19.915 --> 00:09:21.050
When we're sad we need connection, we're hungry for it.
00:09:21.117 --> 00:09:22.251
We need connection, we're hungry for it. when we are angry,
00:09:22.318 --> 00:09:23.653
We're hungry for it. when we are angry, it is usually because
00:09:23.719 --> 00:09:24.820
When we are angry, it is usually because we need value and worth
00:09:24.887 --> 00:09:25.821
It is usually because we need value and worth to be applied
00:09:25.888 --> 00:09:27.023
We need value and worth to be applied to something important
00:09:27.089 --> 00:09:28.224
To be applied to something important and someone has not done that.
00:09:28.290 --> 00:09:29.525
To something important and someone has not done that. when we're afraid
00:09:29.592 --> 00:09:30.693
And someone has not done that. when we're afraid we need to feel safe.
00:09:30.760 --> 00:09:32.228
When we're afraid we need to feel safe. the emotion of fear
00:09:32.294 --> 00:09:33.362
We need to feel safe. the emotion of fear is a human emotion.
00:09:33.429 --> 00:09:34.530
The emotion of fear is a human emotion. it is saying i need safety.
00:09:34.597 --> 00:09:35.698
Is a human emotion. it is saying i need safety. just like when i'm hungry,
00:09:35.765 --> 00:09:36.799
It is saying i need safety. just like when i'm hungry, i need food.
00:09:36.866 --> 00:09:38.668
Just like when i'm hungry, i need food. humans need food and water
00:09:38.734 --> 00:09:39.969
I need food. humans need food and water to survive
00:09:40.036 --> 00:09:41.037
Humans need food and water to survive but we need connection
00:09:41.103 --> 00:09:42.138
To survive but we need connection and worth and safety
00:09:42.204 --> 00:09:43.205
But we need connection and worth and safety and our emotional pain
00:09:43.272 --> 00:09:44.473
And worth and safety and our emotional pain is a hunger pang
00:09:44.540 --> 00:09:45.808
And our emotional pain is a hunger pang for those things.
00:09:45.875 --> 00:09:47.410
Is a hunger pang for those things. when we ignore those needs
00:09:47.476 --> 00:09:49.779
For those things. when we ignore those needs eventually
00:09:49.845 --> 00:09:51.013
When we ignore those needs eventually we find ourselves unwell.
00:09:51.080 --> 00:09:52.381
I want to point that out
00:09:54.016 --> 00:09:55.484
I want to point that out because i know so many people
00:09:55.551 --> 00:09:56.719
Because i know so many people who know jesus are listening.
00:09:56.786 --> 00:09:58.454
Who know jesus are listening. when jesus expressed
00:09:58.521 --> 00:09:59.889
When jesus expressed his emotional pain,
00:09:59.955 --> 00:10:01.257
His emotional pain, he never held it back.
00:10:01.323 --> 00:10:02.725
He never held it back. he didn't apologize.
00:10:02.792 --> 00:10:05.061
He cried in front
00:10:06.195 --> 00:10:07.129
He cried in front of the tomb of lazarus,
00:10:07.196 --> 00:10:08.164
He cried in front of the tomb of lazarus, in front of people --
00:10:08.230 --> 00:10:09.198
Of the tomb of lazarus, in front of people -- public tears!
00:10:09.265 --> 00:10:10.232
And some people say,
00:10:12.368 --> 00:10:13.335
That his friend died.
00:10:14.437 --> 00:10:15.404
That his friend died. and some said that he's sad
00:10:15.471 --> 00:10:16.505
And some said that he's sad because he was thinking
00:10:16.572 --> 00:10:17.540
Whatever reason it was,
00:10:18.641 --> 00:10:19.608
Whatever reason it was, they weren't tears of joy.
00:10:19.675 --> 00:10:21.243
He was crying.
00:10:21.343 --> 00:10:22.344
He was crying. even though he knew
00:10:22.411 --> 00:10:23.446
He was crying. even though he knew he was about to raise lazarus
00:10:23.512 --> 00:10:24.580
Even though he knew he was about to raise lazarus from the dead,
00:10:24.647 --> 00:10:25.748
He was about to raise lazarus from the dead, even though he knew
00:10:25.815 --> 00:10:26.782
From the dead, even though he knew his father was going
00:10:26.849 --> 00:10:27.817
Even though he knew his father was going to raise him?
00:10:27.883 --> 00:10:28.818
His father was going to raise him? just because you have faith
00:10:28.884 --> 00:10:30.052
To raise him? just because you have faith for the outcome doesn't mean
00:10:30.119 --> 00:10:31.153
Just because you have faith for the outcome doesn't mean you don't have pain
00:10:31.220 --> 00:10:32.288
For the outcome doesn't mean you don't have pain in the process.
00:10:32.354 --> 00:10:33.422
You don't have pain in the process. and jesus expressed the pain
00:10:33.489 --> 00:10:34.924
In the process. and jesus expressed the pain of the process
00:10:34.990 --> 00:10:36.158
And jesus expressed the pain of the process because he was wearing
00:10:36.225 --> 00:10:37.159
Of the process because he was wearing a human body.
00:10:37.226 --> 00:10:39.161
Because he was wearing a human body. just like us!
00:10:39.228 --> 00:10:40.596
A human body. just like us! we see him so listen,
00:10:40.663 --> 00:10:42.031
Just like us! we see him so listen, we go tears at lazarus's tomb,
00:10:42.098 --> 00:10:44.734
We see him so listen, we go tears at lazarus's tomb, raises him from the dead.
00:10:44.800 --> 00:10:45.935
We go tears at lazarus's tomb, raises him from the dead. we see him flipping tables
00:10:46.001 --> 00:10:47.002
Raises him from the dead. we see him flipping tables in the temple when he's angry.
00:10:47.069 --> 00:10:48.204
We see him flipping tables in the temple when he's angry. i mean, he went off.
00:10:48.270 --> 00:10:50.606
In the temple when he's angry. i mean, he went off. and then people flow
00:10:50.673 --> 00:10:51.707
I mean, he went off. and then people flow into the temple
00:10:51.774 --> 00:10:52.708
And then people flow into the temple and he heals their bodies.
00:10:52.775 --> 00:10:53.876
Into the temple and he heals their bodies. in gethsemane we see him
00:10:53.943 --> 00:10:55.277
And he heals their bodies. in gethsemane we see him distressed beyond measure.
00:10:55.344 --> 00:10:56.746
In gethsemane we see him distressed beyond measure. he is crying out to god,
00:10:56.812 --> 00:10:58.147
Distressed beyond measure. he is crying out to god, the book of hebrews says
00:10:58.214 --> 00:10:59.215
He is crying out to god, the book of hebrews says with loud crying and tears,
00:10:59.281 --> 00:11:01.117
The book of hebrews says with loud crying and tears, he sought his father
00:11:01.183 --> 00:11:02.351
With loud crying and tears, he sought his father who could save him from death.
00:11:02.418 --> 00:11:03.486
He sought his father who could save him from death. he's really crying.
00:11:03.552 --> 00:11:04.620
Who could save him from death. he's really crying. and then a few minutes later
00:11:04.687 --> 00:11:06.088
He's really crying. and then a few minutes later after he strengthened,
00:11:06.155 --> 00:11:07.189
And then a few minutes later after he strengthened, he walks down
00:11:07.256 --> 00:11:08.290
After he strengthened, he walks down and says, i am he
00:11:08.357 --> 00:11:09.358
He walks down and says, i am he to the soldiers
00:11:09.425 --> 00:11:10.426
And says, i am he to the soldiers who came to get him,
00:11:10.493 --> 00:11:11.494
To the soldiers who came to get him, and knocks them
00:11:11.560 --> 00:11:12.561
Who came to get him, and knocks them off their feet.
00:11:12.628 --> 00:11:13.629
And knocks them off their feet. every time jesus had
00:11:13.696 --> 00:11:14.697
Off their feet. every time jesus had an emotional breakdown
00:11:14.764 --> 00:11:15.765
Every time jesus had an emotional breakdown he had a breakthrough.
00:11:15.831 --> 00:11:16.832
An emotional breakdown he had a breakthrough. something miraculous happened!
00:11:16.899 --> 00:11:18.134
He had a breakthrough. something miraculous happened! and we are holding in
00:11:18.200 --> 00:11:19.401
Something miraculous happened! and we are holding in all of our pain,
00:11:19.468 --> 00:11:20.536
And we are holding in all of our pain, and i think we are aborting
00:11:20.603 --> 00:11:22.004
All of our pain, and i think we are aborting our breakthrough
00:11:22.071 --> 00:11:23.339
And i think we are aborting our breakthrough because we're not
00:11:23.405 --> 00:11:24.573
Our breakthrough because we're not releasing the pain
00:11:24.640 --> 00:11:25.875
Because we're not releasing the pain and allowing the spirit
00:11:25.941 --> 00:11:27.042
Releasing the pain and allowing the spirit to flow behind us
00:11:27.109 --> 00:11:28.144
And allowing the spirit to flow behind us just like jesus did.
00:11:28.210 --> 00:11:29.211
To flow behind us just like jesus did. tammy: that is so good.
00:11:29.278 --> 00:11:30.579
Just like jesus did. tammy: that is so good. i love how
00:11:30.646 --> 00:11:31.781
Tammy: that is so good. i love how you talk about that.
00:11:31.847 --> 00:11:32.948
I love how you talk about that. the breakthrough and coming
00:11:33.015 --> 00:11:34.116
You talk about that. the breakthrough and coming to the other side of that.
00:11:34.183 --> 00:11:35.317
The breakthrough and coming to the other side of that. oh my gosh, what would you say
00:11:35.384 --> 00:11:36.452
To the other side of that. oh my gosh, what would you say to the person
00:11:36.519 --> 00:11:37.520
Oh my gosh, what would you say to the person that has been told
00:11:37.586 --> 00:11:38.587
To the person that has been told you don't have enough faith
00:11:38.654 --> 00:11:39.655
That has been told you don't have enough faith because you're
00:11:39.722 --> 00:11:40.723
You don't have enough faith because you're showing emotion.
00:11:40.790 --> 00:11:41.724
Because you're showing emotion. this pain hurts
00:11:41.791 --> 00:11:43.092
Showing emotion. this pain hurts so you're crying
00:11:43.159 --> 00:11:44.126
This pain hurts so you're crying so you're not believing enough
00:11:44.193 --> 00:11:45.227
So you're crying so you're not believing enough that god can turn this around.
00:11:45.294 --> 00:11:46.395
So you're not believing enough that god can turn this around. you have no faith.
00:11:46.462 --> 00:11:47.997
That god can turn this around. you have no faith. what do we say
00:11:48.063 --> 00:11:49.064
Anita: i would say,
00:11:50.299 --> 00:11:51.267
Anita: i would say, am i required
00:11:51.333 --> 00:11:52.268
Am i required to have more faith than jesus?
00:11:52.334 --> 00:11:53.302
To have more faith than jesus? because jesus was crying.
00:11:53.369 --> 00:11:54.336
Because jesus was crying. why didn't jesus
00:11:54.403 --> 00:11:55.371
Why didn't jesus just walk into gethsemane
00:11:55.437 --> 00:11:56.405
Just walk into gethsemane like hey!
00:11:56.472 --> 00:11:57.439
Like hey! it's crucifixion day.
00:11:57.506 --> 00:11:58.474
He did not!
00:11:59.708 --> 00:12:01.177
He did not! he did not.
00:12:01.243 --> 00:12:02.244
He did not! he did not. he expressed the pain
00:12:02.311 --> 00:12:03.312
He did not. he expressed the pain of what it meant to be
00:12:03.379 --> 00:12:04.380
He expressed the pain of what it meant to be in that human body
00:12:04.446 --> 00:12:05.447
Of what it meant to be in that human body and we're allowed
00:12:05.514 --> 00:12:06.582
In that human body and we're allowed to do that too.
00:12:06.649 --> 00:12:07.716
And we're allowed to do that too. but we have allowed
00:12:07.783 --> 00:12:08.751
To do that too. but we have allowed cultures' view of emotion.
00:12:08.818 --> 00:12:10.352
But we have allowed cultures' view of emotion. our western culture,
00:12:10.419 --> 00:12:12.021
Cultures' view of emotion. our western culture, some of the greek philosophies
00:12:12.087 --> 00:12:13.556
Our western culture, some of the greek philosophies that have been formed the way
00:12:13.622 --> 00:12:14.890
Some of the greek philosophies that have been formed the way we approach christianity,
00:12:14.957 --> 00:12:16.392
That have been formed the way we approach christianity, approach the scripture
00:12:16.458 --> 00:12:17.726
We approach christianity, approach the scripture where the thought was
00:12:17.793 --> 00:12:19.028
Approach the scripture where the thought was emotion is bad to show,
00:12:19.094 --> 00:12:20.396
Where the thought was emotion is bad to show, the mind is more important.
00:12:20.462 --> 00:12:21.730
Emotion is bad to show, the mind is more important. and we have absorbed that
00:12:21.797 --> 00:12:22.865
The mind is more important. and we have absorbed that into our theology.
00:12:22.932 --> 00:12:24.133
And we have absorbed that into our theology. but that doesn't reflect
00:12:24.200 --> 00:12:25.835
Into our theology. but that doesn't reflect the jesus i see in that book.
00:12:25.901 --> 00:12:27.102
But that doesn't reflect the jesus i see in that book. so we have to be very careful
00:12:27.169 --> 00:12:28.604
The jesus i see in that book. so we have to be very careful not only in studying scripture
00:12:28.671 --> 00:12:29.905
So we have to be very careful not only in studying scripture in the context
00:12:29.972 --> 00:12:31.173
Not only in studying scripture in the context where it was written
00:12:31.240 --> 00:12:32.241
In the context where it was written but paying attention
00:12:32.308 --> 00:12:33.275
Where it was written but paying attention to the context
00:12:33.342 --> 00:12:34.276
But paying attention to the context where it's being read.
00:12:34.343 --> 00:12:35.444
To the context where it's being read. why am i reading it
00:12:35.511 --> 00:12:36.478
Where it's being read. why am i reading it and not having seen
00:12:36.545 --> 00:12:37.713
Why am i reading it and not having seen this emotional jesus before?
00:12:37.780 --> 00:12:39.014
And not having seen this emotional jesus before? we have to shed
00:12:39.081 --> 00:12:40.216
This emotional jesus before? we have to shed our cultural lens and --
00:12:40.282 --> 00:12:41.350
We have to shed our cultural lens and -- tammy: i never did!
00:12:41.417 --> 00:12:42.651
Our cultural lens and -- tammy: i never did! anita: we weren't taught
00:12:42.718 --> 00:12:43.919
Tammy: i never did! anita: we weren't taught to see it.
00:12:43.986 --> 00:12:45.020
Anita: we weren't taught to see it. we have certain
00:12:45.087 --> 00:12:46.088
To see it. we have certain cultural blinders on.
00:12:46.155 --> 00:12:47.256
We have certain cultural blinders on. tammy: and that alone
00:12:47.323 --> 00:12:48.290
Cultural blinders on. tammy: and that alone set me free just reading that.
00:12:48.357 --> 00:12:49.291
Tammy: and that alone set me free just reading that. like oh,
00:12:49.358 --> 00:12:50.492
Set me free just reading that. like oh, jesus was emotional?
00:12:50.559 --> 00:12:51.493
Like oh, jesus was emotional? then i'm okay
00:12:51.560 --> 00:12:52.561
Jesus was emotional? then i'm okay to have some emotions.
00:12:52.628 --> 00:12:53.696
Then i'm okay to have some emotions. anita: and when we miss it,
00:12:53.762 --> 00:12:54.830
To have some emotions. anita: and when we miss it, we don't care for the soil,
00:12:54.897 --> 00:12:55.965
Anita: and when we miss it, we don't care for the soil, and then the seeds fall
00:12:56.031 --> 00:12:57.166
We don't care for the soil, and then the seeds fall and the power of the seeds
00:12:57.233 --> 00:12:59.068
And then the seeds fall and the power of the seeds is not unleashed
00:12:59.134 --> 00:13:00.703
And the power of the seeds is not unleashed because the soil
00:13:00.769 --> 00:13:01.971
Is not unleashed because the soil isn't ready for them.
00:13:02.037 --> 00:13:03.072
Because the soil isn't ready for them. and not because
00:13:03.138 --> 00:13:04.240
Isn't ready for them. and not because we have painful emotions
00:13:04.306 --> 00:13:05.307
And not because we have painful emotions but because
00:13:05.374 --> 00:13:06.475
We have painful emotions but because we don't allow them
00:13:06.542 --> 00:13:07.543
But because we don't allow them to flow through and out.
00:13:07.610 --> 00:13:08.644
We don't allow them to flow through and out. it is okay
00:13:08.711 --> 00:13:09.879
To flow through and out. it is okay to feel all of the feelings.
00:13:09.945 --> 00:13:11.247
It is okay to feel all of the feelings. hebrews 4:15 says
00:13:11.313 --> 00:13:12.481
To feel all of the feelings. hebrews 4:15 says we have not a high priest
00:13:12.548 --> 00:13:13.582
Hebrews 4:15 says we have not a high priest who cannot be touched
00:13:13.649 --> 00:13:14.717
We have not a high priest who cannot be touched by the feelings
00:13:14.783 --> 00:13:15.851
Who cannot be touched by the feelings of our infirmities.
00:13:15.918 --> 00:13:16.986
By the feelings of our infirmities. and that he was tempted
00:13:17.052 --> 00:13:18.187
Of our infirmities. and that he was tempted in every way
00:13:18.254 --> 00:13:19.321
And that he was tempted in every way but he never sinned.
00:13:19.388 --> 00:13:20.456
In every way but he never sinned. so that means no feeling
00:13:20.522 --> 00:13:21.590
But he never sinned. so that means no feeling in itself can be a sin.
00:13:21.657 --> 00:13:22.825
So that means no feeling in itself can be a sin. because if jesus felt
00:13:22.892 --> 00:13:23.893
In itself can be a sin. because if jesus felt everything we felt
00:13:23.959 --> 00:13:24.960
Because if jesus felt everything we felt and he never sinned --
00:13:25.027 --> 00:13:26.595
Everything we felt and he never sinned -- tammy: what about anger?
00:13:26.662 --> 00:13:27.796
And he never sinned -- tammy: what about anger? anita: anger is not a sin.
00:13:27.863 --> 00:13:29.398
Tammy: what about anger? anita: anger is not a sin. what does ephesians say?
00:13:29.465 --> 00:13:30.466
Anita: anger is not a sin. what does ephesians say? "be angry and sin not."
00:13:30.532 --> 00:13:31.934
What does ephesians say? "be angry and sin not." it doesn't say
00:13:32.001 --> 00:13:33.035
"be angry and sin not." it doesn't say don't be angry
00:13:33.102 --> 00:13:34.169
It doesn't say don't be angry so you won't sin.
00:13:34.236 --> 00:13:35.237
Don't be angry so you won't sin. it says,
00:13:35.304 --> 00:13:36.338
So you won't sin. it says, "be angry and sin not."
00:13:36.405 --> 00:13:37.573
It says, "be angry and sin not." anger can push our behavior
00:13:37.640 --> 00:13:38.774
"be angry and sin not." anger can push our behavior and so we need
00:13:38.841 --> 00:13:39.942
Anger can push our behavior and so we need to pay attention to that.
00:13:40.009 --> 00:13:41.176
And so we need to pay attention to that. but a lot of times,
00:13:41.243 --> 00:13:42.411
To pay attention to that. but a lot of times, we don't even want
00:13:42.478 --> 00:13:43.579
But a lot of times, we don't even want to touch that we're angry.
00:13:43.646 --> 00:13:44.847
We don't even want to touch that we're angry. but it's under there
00:13:44.914 --> 00:13:46.015
To touch that we're angry. but it's under there just boiling, just boiling.
00:13:46.081 --> 00:13:47.182
But it's under there just boiling, just boiling. and then we say,
00:13:47.249 --> 00:13:48.384
Just boiling, just boiling. and then we say, "i lost my temper."
00:13:48.450 --> 00:13:49.418
And then we say, "i lost my temper." no, you've been holding it in
00:13:49.485 --> 00:13:50.452
"i lost my temper." no, you've been holding it in so long.
00:13:50.519 --> 00:13:51.553
No, you've been holding it in so long. it is okay to be angry.
00:13:51.620 --> 00:13:52.688
So long. it is okay to be angry. there are things that
00:13:52.755 --> 00:13:53.722
It is okay to be angry. there are things that we should righteously
00:13:53.789 --> 00:13:54.857
There are things that we should righteously be angry about.
00:13:54.924 --> 00:13:55.991
We should righteously be angry about. but when we hold it in,
00:13:56.058 --> 00:13:57.226
Be angry about. but when we hold it in, you know what?
00:13:57.293 --> 00:13:58.394
But when we hold it in, you know what? it makes us sick,
00:13:58.460 --> 00:13:59.395
You know what? it makes us sick, it undermines
00:13:59.461 --> 00:14:00.562
It makes us sick, it undermines our immune system.
00:14:00.629 --> 00:14:01.563
It undermines our immune system. we're more likely to get ill.
00:14:01.630 --> 00:14:02.698
Our immune system. we're more likely to get ill. so our bodies, our hearts,
00:14:02.765 --> 00:14:03.966
We're more likely to get ill. so our bodies, our hearts, our spirits, our minds,
00:14:04.033 --> 00:14:05.200
So our bodies, our hearts, our spirits, our minds, everything's meant
00:14:05.267 --> 00:14:06.335
Our spirits, our minds, everything's meant to work together.
00:14:06.402 --> 00:14:07.369
Everything's meant to work together. but this obsession
00:14:07.436 --> 00:14:08.504
To work together. but this obsession with the mind,
00:14:08.570 --> 00:14:09.538
But this obsession with the mind, it's the original sin.
00:14:09.605 --> 00:14:11.440
With the mind, it's the original sin. isn't that what
00:14:11.507 --> 00:14:12.841
It's the original sin. isn't that what the first woman
00:14:12.908 --> 00:14:13.909
Isn't that what the first woman and then the first man did?
00:14:13.976 --> 00:14:15.377
The first woman and then the first man did? oh, if i eat this fruit,
00:14:15.444 --> 00:14:16.845
And then the first man did? oh, if i eat this fruit, i'll be wise like god.
00:14:16.912 --> 00:14:18.347
Oh, if i eat this fruit, i'll be wise like god. i'll be able to think
00:14:18.414 --> 00:14:19.481
I'll be wise like god. i'll be able to think like god.
00:14:19.548 --> 00:14:20.549
I'll be able to think like god. it was a pursuit of the mind.
00:14:20.616 --> 00:14:21.817
Like god. it was a pursuit of the mind. if she had --
00:14:21.884 --> 00:14:22.952
It was a pursuit of the mind. if she had -- if that first woman
00:14:23.018 --> 00:14:24.086
If she had -- if that first woman had just kept his word
00:14:24.153 --> 00:14:25.120
If that first woman had just kept his word hidden in her heart
00:14:25.187 --> 00:14:26.322
Had just kept his word hidden in her heart instead of thinking
00:14:26.388 --> 00:14:27.489
Hidden in her heart instead of thinking about what she could do
00:14:27.556 --> 00:14:28.557
Instead of thinking about what she could do with her mind.
00:14:28.624 --> 00:14:29.658
About what she could do with her mind. tammy: oh my gosh!
00:14:29.725 --> 00:14:30.893
With her mind. tammy: oh my gosh! how do we understand
00:14:30.960 --> 00:14:31.994
Tammy: oh my gosh! how do we understand mental wellness
00:14:32.061 --> 00:14:33.696
How do we understand mental wellness through the scripture?
00:14:33.762 --> 00:14:35.030
Mental wellness through the scripture? this is also what i love
00:14:35.097 --> 00:14:36.165
Through the scripture? this is also what i love so much about your book.
00:14:36.231 --> 00:14:37.566
This is also what i love so much about your book. it is so --
00:14:37.633 --> 00:14:39.134
So much about your book. it is so -- it is so sound --
00:14:39.201 --> 00:14:40.369
It is so -- it is so sound -- biblically sound, practical.
00:14:40.436 --> 00:14:42.972
It is so sound -- biblically sound, practical. there is so much science here.
00:14:43.038 --> 00:14:44.340
Biblically sound, practical. there is so much science here. i'm like, she is sending me
00:14:44.406 --> 00:14:45.808
There is so much science here. i'm like, she is sending me back to school.
00:14:45.874 --> 00:14:47.176
I'm like, she is sending me back to school. there is so much in it.
00:14:47.242 --> 00:14:48.243
Back to school. there is so much in it. it's just wrapped around
00:14:48.310 --> 00:14:49.411
There is so much in it. it's just wrapped around so many scriptures,
00:14:49.478 --> 00:14:50.512
It's just wrapped around so many scriptures, the word of god.
00:14:50.579 --> 00:14:51.647
So many scriptures, the word of god. it is solid.
00:14:51.714 --> 00:14:52.781
The word of god. it is solid. there is a revelation,
00:14:52.848 --> 00:14:53.882
It is solid. there is a revelation, a bit of a revival
00:14:53.949 --> 00:14:55.117
There is a revelation, a bit of a revival in your life that can happen
00:14:55.184 --> 00:14:56.885
A bit of a revival in your life that can happen if you tap into the truth
00:14:56.952 --> 00:14:58.087
In your life that can happen if you tap into the truth of what you are speaking of.
00:14:58.153 --> 00:14:59.588
If you tap into the truth of what you are speaking of. this is stuff
00:14:59.655 --> 00:15:00.723
Of what you are speaking of. this is stuff you've researched,
00:15:00.789 --> 00:15:01.857
This girl knows
00:15:03.058 --> 00:15:04.126
This girl knows what she's talking about.
00:15:04.193 --> 00:15:05.194
What she's talking about. so how do we understand
00:15:05.260 --> 00:15:06.328
So how do we understand even mental wellness
00:15:06.395 --> 00:15:08.364
Even mental wellness right now?
00:15:08.430 --> 00:15:09.465
Right now? it is a big thing.
00:15:09.531 --> 00:15:10.666
In the last few years.
00:15:12.234 --> 00:15:13.302
In the last few years. many people are struggling
00:15:13.369 --> 00:15:14.470
In the last few years. many people are struggling with mental wellness,
00:15:14.536 --> 00:15:16.238
Many people are struggling with mental wellness, and mental illness, even.
00:15:16.305 --> 00:15:17.573
With mental wellness, and mental illness, even. how do we navigate
00:15:17.639 --> 00:15:18.774
And mental illness, even. how do we navigate through that in scripture?
00:15:18.841 --> 00:15:19.975
How do we navigate through that in scripture? anita: absolutely,
00:15:20.042 --> 00:15:21.043
Through that in scripture? anita: absolutely, it is in there.
00:15:21.110 --> 00:15:22.077
Anita: absolutely, it is in there. everything is in that book.
00:15:22.144 --> 00:15:23.212
It is in there. everything is in that book. i take you to romans seven
00:15:23.278 --> 00:15:24.279
Everything is in that book. i take you to romans seven and we look at paul who wrote
00:15:24.346 --> 00:15:25.914
I take you to romans seven and we look at paul who wrote most of the mind scriptures
00:15:25.981 --> 00:15:27.049
How he himself struggled.
00:15:28.283 --> 00:15:30.652
How he himself struggled. in the second half
00:15:30.719 --> 00:15:31.754
In the second half of that chapter,
00:15:31.820 --> 00:15:32.855
Of that chapter, he's talking about
00:15:32.921 --> 00:15:33.956
He's talking about what i don't want to do, i do.
00:15:34.023 --> 00:15:35.090
What i don't want to do, i do. what i do want to do, i don't.
00:15:35.157 --> 00:15:36.191
Right?
00:15:37.326 --> 00:15:38.260
Right? and we talk about that
00:15:38.327 --> 00:15:39.294
Right? and we talk about that in terms of trying
00:15:39.361 --> 00:15:40.329
And we talk about that in terms of trying not to commit acts of sin.
00:15:40.396 --> 00:15:41.463
In terms of trying not to commit acts of sin. but i think
00:15:41.530 --> 00:15:42.531
Not to commit acts of sin. but i think paul was talking about
00:15:42.598 --> 00:15:43.665
But i think paul was talking about an internal struggle.
00:15:43.732 --> 00:15:44.767
Paul was talking about an internal struggle. because paul himself
00:15:44.833 --> 00:15:45.934
An internal struggle. because paul himself in other passages says
00:15:46.001 --> 00:15:47.102
Because paul himself in other passages says that by touching the law,
00:15:47.169 --> 00:15:48.303
In other passages says that by touching the law, he was blameless, and perfect.
00:15:48.370 --> 00:15:49.838
That by touching the law, he was blameless, and perfect. like he was righteous
00:15:49.905 --> 00:15:51.106
He was blameless, and perfect. like he was righteous according to the law.
00:15:51.173 --> 00:15:52.107
Like he was righteous according to the law. so it is hard
00:15:52.174 --> 00:15:53.275
According to the law. so it is hard for me to believe
00:15:53.342 --> 00:15:54.376
So it is hard for me to believe that he never broke
00:15:54.443 --> 00:15:55.477
For me to believe that he never broke the law of god
00:15:55.544 --> 00:15:56.578
That he never broke the law of god before he met jesus
00:15:56.645 --> 00:15:57.679
The law of god before he met jesus on the damascus road.
00:15:57.746 --> 00:15:58.781
Before he met jesus on the damascus road. but after that,
00:15:58.847 --> 00:15:59.882
On the damascus road. but after that, he was struggling
00:15:59.948 --> 00:16:00.983
But after that, he was struggling to like what?
00:16:01.050 --> 00:16:02.084
He was struggling to like what? not go out and party?
00:16:02.151 --> 00:16:03.185
To like what? not go out and party? i thinking something else
00:16:03.252 --> 00:16:04.286
Not go out and party? i thinking something else was happening.
00:16:04.353 --> 00:16:05.387
I thinking something else was happening. he says that there was
00:16:05.454 --> 00:16:06.488
Was happening. he says that there was the law of god in his mind
00:16:06.555 --> 00:16:07.589
He says that there was the law of god in his mind but that there was another law
00:16:07.656 --> 00:16:08.690
The law of god in his mind but that there was another law in his body, his members,
00:16:08.757 --> 00:16:09.792
But that there was another law in his body, his members, warring against
00:16:09.858 --> 00:16:10.893
In his body, his members, warring against the law of his mind.
00:16:10.959 --> 00:16:11.994
Warring against the law of his mind. and he said, "sometimes
00:16:12.061 --> 00:16:13.095
The law of his mind. and he said, "sometimes it takes my mind captive."
00:16:13.162 --> 00:16:14.196
And he said, "sometimes it takes my mind captive." so yes, paul wrote
00:16:14.263 --> 00:16:15.364
It takes my mind captive." so yes, paul wrote all those verses
00:16:15.431 --> 00:16:16.498
So yes, paul wrote all those verses about the mind but he also
00:16:16.565 --> 00:16:17.499
All those verses about the mind but he also vulnerably acknowledged
00:16:17.566 --> 00:16:18.534
About the mind but he also vulnerably acknowledged that sometimes
00:16:18.600 --> 00:16:19.601
Vulnerably acknowledged that sometimes something in his body
00:16:19.668 --> 00:16:20.702
That sometimes something in his body was doing something
00:16:20.769 --> 00:16:21.837
Something in his body was doing something his mind wishes it wouldn't.
00:16:21.904 --> 00:16:24.006
Was doing something his mind wishes it wouldn't. i believe he was struggling
00:16:24.073 --> 00:16:25.107
His mind wishes it wouldn't. i believe he was struggling with internal feelings.
00:16:25.174 --> 00:16:26.108
I believe he was struggling with internal feelings. i believe he struggled
00:16:26.175 --> 00:16:27.142
With internal feelings. i believe he struggled with anxiety.
00:16:27.209 --> 00:16:28.277
I believe he struggled with anxiety. and you'll have to get
00:16:28.343 --> 00:16:29.411
With anxiety. and you'll have to get the book to read that
00:16:29.478 --> 00:16:30.546
And you'll have to get the book to read that but he admits that sometimes
00:16:30.612 --> 00:16:31.880
The book to read that but he admits that sometimes something in his body
00:16:31.947 --> 00:16:33.148
But he admits that sometimes something in his body was stronger than
00:16:33.215 --> 00:16:34.316
Something in his body was stronger than his volitional mind.
00:16:34.383 --> 00:16:35.451
Mental illness is.
00:16:36.685 --> 00:16:37.719
Mental illness is. there are times
00:16:37.786 --> 00:16:38.854
There are times when our body and our brain,
00:16:38.921 --> 00:16:40.022
When our body and our brain, which your brain
00:16:40.089 --> 00:16:41.156
Which your brain is part of your body,
00:16:41.223 --> 00:16:42.291
Is part of your body, malfunction in a way
00:16:42.357 --> 00:16:43.425
Malfunction in a way that overcomes
00:16:43.492 --> 00:16:44.560
That overcomes how we want to feel.
00:16:44.626 --> 00:16:45.828
How we want to feel. my sister didn't want
00:16:45.894 --> 00:16:47.096
She didn't want
00:16:48.397 --> 00:16:49.431
She didn't want to hear voices.
00:16:49.498 --> 00:16:50.566
She didn't want to hear voices. nobody wants to be
00:16:50.632 --> 00:16:51.700
To hear voices. nobody wants to be in the grips of depression
00:16:51.767 --> 00:16:52.835
For weeks.
00:16:52.935 --> 00:16:53.969
With bipolar disorder
00:16:55.170 --> 00:16:56.238
With bipolar disorder but something happens
00:16:56.305 --> 00:16:57.306
But something happens in the body
00:16:57.372 --> 00:16:58.373
In the body just as high blood pressure
00:16:58.440 --> 00:16:59.575
What i want to do,
00:17:02.311 --> 00:17:03.545
What i want to do, what i choose,
00:17:03.612 --> 00:17:04.646
What i want to do, what i choose, and how i wish i could feel.
00:17:04.713 --> 00:17:06.048
What i choose, and how i wish i could feel. and that's not making excuses,
00:17:06.115 --> 00:17:07.683
And how i wish i could feel. and that's not making excuses, it is real.
00:17:07.749 --> 00:17:09.118
And that's not making excuses, it is real. so we have to understand
00:17:09.184 --> 00:17:10.652
It is real. so we have to understand that if paul acknowledged
00:17:10.719 --> 00:17:12.554
So we have to understand that if paul acknowledged that there are times
00:17:12.621 --> 00:17:13.789
That if paul acknowledged that there are times when my body overthrows
00:17:13.856 --> 00:17:15.224
That there are times when my body overthrows my volitional choice,
00:17:15.290 --> 00:17:16.859
When my body overthrows my volitional choice, that is certainly
00:17:16.925 --> 00:17:17.993
My volitional choice, that is certainly going to happen to us.
00:17:18.060 --> 00:17:19.128
That is certainly going to happen to us. and that is all
00:17:19.194 --> 00:17:20.262
Going to happen to us. and that is all that mental illness is.
00:17:20.329 --> 00:17:21.396
And that is all that mental illness is. something in my body is broken
00:17:21.463 --> 00:17:22.664
That mental illness is. something in my body is broken and it is overthrowing
00:17:22.731 --> 00:17:24.333
Something in my body is broken and it is overthrowing my volitional mind.
00:17:24.399 --> 00:17:25.601
And it is overthrowing my volitional mind. but here's the beautiful part.
00:17:25.667 --> 00:17:26.635
My volitional mind. but here's the beautiful part. at the end
00:17:26.702 --> 00:17:27.669
But here's the beautiful part. at the end of chapter seven in romans,
00:17:27.736 --> 00:17:28.704
At the end of chapter seven in romans, paul laments this.
00:17:28.770 --> 00:17:29.738
Of chapter seven in romans, paul laments this. he says,
00:17:29.805 --> 00:17:30.772
Paul laments this. he says, "oh, this body of death."
00:17:30.839 --> 00:17:31.807
He says, "oh, this body of death." but then he goes straight on
00:17:31.874 --> 00:17:33.108
"oh, this body of death." but then he goes straight on and says,
00:17:33.175 --> 00:17:34.143
But then he goes straight on and says, "but there is therefore now
00:17:34.209 --> 00:17:35.210
And says, "but there is therefore now no condemnation to those
00:17:35.277 --> 00:17:36.245
"but there is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in christ jesus."
00:17:36.311 --> 00:17:37.312
No condemnation to those who are in christ jesus." that's the very next verse!
00:17:37.379 --> 00:17:38.347
Who are in christ jesus." that's the very next verse! that's the very next verse!
00:17:38.413 --> 00:17:39.414
That's the very next verse! that's the very next verse! tammy: amazing!
00:17:39.481 --> 00:17:40.516
That's the very next verse! tammy: amazing! anita: so there is
00:17:40.582 --> 00:17:41.650
Tammy: amazing! anita: so there is no condemnation
00:17:41.717 --> 00:17:42.784
Anita: so there is no condemnation if your human body breaks
00:17:42.851 --> 00:17:43.919
No condemnation if your human body breaks in a way that struggles
00:17:43.986 --> 00:17:45.087
If your human body breaks in a way that struggles against your mind.
00:17:45.154 --> 00:17:46.922
In a way that struggles against your mind. jesus still lives within you
00:17:46.989 --> 00:17:48.957
Against your mind. jesus still lives within you and he goes right on through
00:17:49.024 --> 00:17:50.125
Jesus still lives within you and he goes right on through that whole chapter eight.
00:17:50.192 --> 00:17:51.226
And he goes right on through that whole chapter eight. he says
00:17:51.293 --> 00:17:52.294
That whole chapter eight. he says that we are victorious,
00:17:52.361 --> 00:17:53.395
He says that we are victorious, that we are more
00:17:53.462 --> 00:17:54.496
That we are victorious, that we are more than conquerors.
00:17:54.563 --> 00:17:55.597
That we are more than conquerors. and he ends it by saying
00:17:55.664 --> 00:17:56.698
Than conquerors. and he ends it by saying what can separate us
00:17:56.765 --> 00:17:57.799
And he ends it by saying what can separate us from the love of god?
00:17:57.866 --> 00:17:58.901
What can separate us from the love of god? nothing! nothing!
00:17:58.967 --> 00:18:00.002
From the love of god? nothing! nothing! no diagnosis, no symptom,
00:18:00.068 --> 00:18:02.171
Nothing! nothing! no diagnosis, no symptom, no pain, no illness.
00:18:02.237 --> 00:18:03.639
No diagnosis, no symptom, no pain, no illness. whatever is going on with you,
00:18:03.705 --> 00:18:05.541
No pain, no illness. whatever is going on with you, jesus knows how you feel.
00:18:05.607 --> 00:18:08.010
Whatever is going on with you, jesus knows how you feel. you are not condemned.
00:18:08.076 --> 00:18:09.645
Jesus knows how you feel. you are not condemned. and as long as you keep
00:18:09.711 --> 00:18:10.812
You are not condemned. and as long as you keep your attention
00:18:10.879 --> 00:18:11.813
And as long as you keep your attention in his direction,
00:18:11.880 --> 00:18:12.814
Your attention in his direction, go to therapy,
00:18:12.881 --> 00:18:13.949
In his direction, go to therapy, take medication,
00:18:14.016 --> 00:18:15.017
Go to therapy, take medication, whatever you need,
00:18:15.083 --> 00:18:16.185
There is no condemnation.
00:18:17.719 --> 00:18:18.954
There is no condemnation. tammy: oh, my gosh!
00:18:19.021 --> 00:18:20.122
Tammy: oh, my gosh! that is powerful stuff
00:18:20.189 --> 00:18:21.323
That is powerful stuff right there.
00:18:21.390 --> 00:18:22.424
Right there. i have so many other things.
00:18:22.491 --> 00:18:23.559
I have so many other things. i have so many other things.
00:18:23.625 --> 00:18:24.793
This one quote
00:18:26.094 --> 00:18:27.062
This one quote and tell me something quickly
00:18:27.129 --> 00:18:28.130
This one quote and tell me something quickly about it.
00:18:28.197 --> 00:18:29.198
And tell me something quickly about it. there are a couple of things:
00:18:29.264 --> 00:18:30.399
About it. there are a couple of things: "never choose an answer
00:18:30.465 --> 00:18:31.533
There are a couple of things: "never choose an answer that limits god."
00:18:31.600 --> 00:18:32.668
"never choose an answer that limits god." i love when you say that
00:18:32.734 --> 00:18:33.802
That limits god." i love when you say that trauma may have shaped you
00:18:33.869 --> 00:18:34.870
I love when you say that trauma may have shaped you but it didn't make you.
00:18:34.937 --> 00:18:36.038
Trauma may have shaped you but it didn't make you. god made you, not your trauma.
00:18:36.104 --> 00:18:38.106
But it didn't make you. god made you, not your trauma. maybe you haven't been
00:18:38.173 --> 00:18:39.341
God made you, not your trauma. maybe you haven't been formally diagnosed
00:18:39.408 --> 00:18:40.676
Maybe you haven't been formally diagnosed with depression, anxiety,
00:18:40.742 --> 00:18:41.910
Formally diagnosed with depression, anxiety, or another
00:18:41.977 --> 00:18:43.078
With depression, anxiety, or another mental health problem
00:18:43.145 --> 00:18:44.246
Or another mental health problem but that doesn't mean
00:18:44.313 --> 00:18:45.347
Mental health problem but that doesn't mean that your struggle isn't real
00:18:45.414 --> 00:18:48.050
But that doesn't mean that your struggle isn't real in your life.
00:18:48.116 --> 00:18:49.151
That your struggle isn't real in your life. and why do we feel
00:18:49.218 --> 00:18:50.252
In your life. and why do we feel the way we feel
00:18:50.319 --> 00:18:51.353
And why do we feel the way we feel about how we feel?
00:18:51.420 --> 00:18:52.454
The way we feel about how we feel? anita: listen.
00:18:52.521 --> 00:18:53.555
About how we feel? anita: listen. when i was told the bible
00:18:53.622 --> 00:18:54.623
Anita: listen. when i was told the bible was not meant for this.
00:18:54.690 --> 00:18:55.657
When i was told the bible was not meant for this. the bible doesn't speak
00:18:55.724 --> 00:18:56.758
Was not meant for this. the bible doesn't speak to biology and psychology,
00:18:56.825 --> 00:18:57.793
The bible doesn't speak to biology and psychology, let me tell you.
00:18:57.859 --> 00:18:58.794
To biology and psychology, let me tell you. when you see
00:18:58.860 --> 00:18:59.895
Let me tell you. when you see in this book our very
00:18:59.962 --> 00:19:00.996
When you see in this book our very nervous system outline
00:19:01.063 --> 00:19:02.097
In this book our very nervous system outline is mapped out in that book.
00:19:02.164 --> 00:19:03.365
Nervous system outline is mapped out in that book. never choose an answer
00:19:03.432 --> 00:19:04.466
Is mapped out in that book. never choose an answer that limits god.
00:19:04.533 --> 00:19:05.567
Never choose an answer that limits god. say, "i don't know,"
00:19:05.634 --> 00:19:06.668
That limits god. say, "i don't know," before you say that god can't,
00:19:06.735 --> 00:19:08.303
Say, "i don't know," before you say that god can't, didn't, or won't.
00:19:08.370 --> 00:19:09.771
Before you say that god can't, didn't, or won't. say, "i don't know."
00:19:09.838 --> 00:19:11.106
Didn't, or won't. say, "i don't know." tammy: even right there,
00:19:11.173 --> 00:19:12.174
Say, "i don't know." tammy: even right there, i don't know.
00:19:12.241 --> 00:19:13.275
Tammy: even right there, i don't know. that's freeing in its sense.
00:19:13.342 --> 00:19:14.443
I don't know. that's freeing in its sense. we always feel like
00:19:14.509 --> 00:19:15.577
That's freeing in its sense. we always feel like we have got to have
00:19:15.644 --> 00:19:16.678
We always feel like we have got to have the answer.
00:19:16.745 --> 00:19:17.713
We have got to have the answer. but if you don't know,
00:19:17.779 --> 00:19:18.847
The answer. but if you don't know, you don't know.
00:19:18.914 --> 00:19:19.881
But if you don't know, you don't know. i have loved
00:19:19.948 --> 00:19:21.049
You don't know. i have loved this conversation.
00:19:21.116 --> 00:19:22.184
I have loved this conversation. i wish we had
00:19:22.251 --> 00:19:23.218
This conversation. i wish we had so much more time.
00:19:23.285 --> 00:19:24.253
I wish we had so much more time. you're amazing.
00:19:24.319 --> 00:19:25.387
So much more time. you're amazing. but look, so many questions
00:19:25.454 --> 00:19:26.521
You're amazing. but look, so many questions that i think people
00:19:26.588 --> 00:19:27.656
But look, so many questions that i think people might even have
00:19:27.723 --> 00:19:28.790
That i think people might even have are going to be in this book.

00:24:52.948 --> 00:24:54.382
At him and says, "lord, where would we go? only you have the words
00:24:54.449 --> 00:24:55.483
"lord, where would we go? only you have the words of eternal life."
00:24:55.550 --> 00:24:57.452
Only you have the words of eternal life." i think that's something
00:24:57.519 --> 00:24:58.486
Of eternal life." i think that's something that all of us as followers
00:24:58.553 --> 00:24:59.654
I think that's something that all of us as followers of jesus, yeshua,
00:24:59.721 --> 00:25:01.489
That all of us as followers of jesus, yeshua, can be mindful of today.
00:25:01.556 --> 00:25:03.892
Of jesus, yeshua, can be mindful of today. what about if we're there
00:25:03.959 --> 00:25:04.893
Can be mindful of today. what about if we're there with jesus right now
00:25:04.960 --> 00:25:05.994
What about if we're there with jesus right now in the sea of galilee?
00:25:06.061 --> 00:25:07.429
With jesus right now in the sea of galilee? or out walking through
00:25:07.495 --> 00:25:08.597
In the sea of galilee? or out walking through the fields or in a synagogue
00:25:08.663 --> 00:25:10.231
Or out walking through the fields or in a synagogue or wherever
00:25:10.298 --> 00:25:11.333
The fields or in a synagogue or wherever he walked with them?
00:25:11.399 --> 00:25:12.367
Or wherever he walked with them? he went everywhere
00:25:12.434 --> 00:25:13.435
He walked with them? he went everywhere with them.
00:25:13.501 --> 00:25:14.469
He went everywhere with them. what would you say
00:25:14.536 --> 00:25:15.570
With them. what would you say if he said what about it,
00:25:15.637 --> 00:25:16.571
What would you say if he said what about it, you guys?
00:25:16.638 --> 00:25:17.706
If he said what about it, you guys? is it getting too hard
00:25:17.772 --> 00:25:18.740
You guys? is it getting too hard for us now?
00:25:18.807 --> 00:25:19.941
Is it getting too hard for us now? is this too hard for you?
00:25:20.008 --> 00:25:21.042
For us now? is this too hard for you? i told you it wouldn't
00:25:21.109 --> 00:25:22.043
Is this too hard for you? i told you it wouldn't be easy.
00:25:22.110 --> 00:25:23.144
I told you it wouldn't be easy. i told you in this world
00:25:23.211 --> 00:25:24.279
Be easy. i told you in this world you'd have trouble
00:25:24.346 --> 00:25:25.313
I told you in this world you'd have trouble and tribulation.
00:25:25.380 --> 00:25:26.381
You'd have trouble and tribulation. but i told you
00:25:26.448 --> 00:25:27.382
And tribulation. but i told you i'd never leave you
00:25:27.449 --> 00:25:28.416
But i told you i'd never leave you nor forsake you too.
00:25:28.483 --> 00:25:29.451
I'd never leave you nor forsake you too. but just tell me now
00:25:29.517 --> 00:25:30.485
Nor forsake you too. but just tell me now if you're going to leave me.
00:25:30.552 --> 00:25:31.486
But just tell me now if you're going to leave me. i wonder if our own hearts,
00:25:31.553 --> 00:25:32.954
If you're going to leave me. i wonder if our own hearts, even though we're tired
00:25:33.021 --> 00:25:34.222
I wonder if our own hearts, even though we're tired and we're weary
00:25:34.289 --> 00:25:35.290
Even though we're tired and we're weary and we're scared
00:25:35.357 --> 00:25:36.458
In so many ways, i wonder
00:25:37.726 --> 00:25:39.294
In so many ways, i wonder if at this very moment
00:25:39.361 --> 00:25:40.528
If at this very moment we could try
00:25:40.595 --> 00:25:42.030
We could try to use our imaginations
00:25:42.097 --> 00:25:44.966
And see our lord asking us,
00:25:47.002 --> 00:25:48.670
And see our lord asking us, "are you going
00:25:48.737 --> 00:25:49.938
And see our lord asking us, "are you going to leave me too?"
00:25:50.005 --> 00:25:51.439
"are you going to leave me too?" i hope you would have
00:25:51.506 --> 00:25:52.707
To leave me too?" i hope you would have the kind of courage
00:25:52.774 --> 00:25:54.409
I hope you would have the kind of courage and wisdom that
00:25:54.476 --> 00:25:55.810
The kind of courage and wisdom that peter had said to him.
00:25:55.877 --> 00:25:58.179
And wisdom that peter had said to him. "where are we going
00:25:58.246 --> 00:25:59.180
Peter had said to him. "where are we going to go, lord?
00:25:59.247 --> 00:26:00.448
"where are we going to go, lord? once we've tasted of you,
00:26:00.515 --> 00:26:02.617
To go, lord? once we've tasted of you, we've tasted and seen
00:26:02.684 --> 00:26:03.852
Once we've tasted of you, we've tasted and seen that you are good.
00:26:03.918 --> 00:26:05.353
We've tasted and seen that you are good. we've watched you
00:26:05.420 --> 00:26:06.488
That you are good. we've watched you and seen that
00:26:06.554 --> 00:26:07.589
We've watched you and seen that you are a miracle worker.
00:26:07.656 --> 00:26:08.757
And seen that you are a miracle worker. we've eaten with you
00:26:08.823 --> 00:26:10.225
You are a miracle worker. we've eaten with you and we've seen how generous
00:26:10.291 --> 00:26:11.893
We've eaten with you and we've seen how generous and kind and we've fed
00:26:11.960 --> 00:26:13.161
And we've seen how generous and kind and we've fed multitudes with you.
00:26:13.228 --> 00:26:15.930
And kind and we've fed multitudes with you. and we've watched
00:26:15.997 --> 00:26:17.132
Multitudes with you. and we've watched you raise people
00:26:17.198 --> 00:26:18.199
And we've watched you raise people from the dead, jesus.
00:26:18.266 --> 00:26:20.135
You raise people from the dead, jesus. we're not going anywhere.
00:26:20.201 --> 00:26:22.337
From the dead, jesus. we're not going anywhere. we're in!

We're not going anywhere. we're in! we are in to the end

We are in to the end because you are the beginning and the end.
00:26:26.975 --> 00:26:28.410
