Emotions feel irrational, and the idea of God experiencing hate, anger, and jealousy can be confusing and problematic. And yet the Bible is full of stories where God expresses deep emotion.

If God is hateful and angry at humanity, is he a God worth believing in?

Feel is a resource to guide you throughout your day and offer you hope, wisdom, and courage through some of the most challenging seasons of your life.

And then, you will begin to see how feelings are a doorway into intimacy with a Savior who loves you.

Sometimes life is a mess, and we get overwhelmed by all sorts of conflicting, difficult emotions. We might be stressed or weary, anxious or fearful, paralyzed by insecurity or crushed by pain.
