Managing Your Emotions Small Group Study
Looking for help with your emotions?
Managing your emotions sometimes feels impossible because they’re often hard to understand and navigate. Yet your emotions are a critical source of information that can’t be ignored. Negative emotions can be distressing and cause problems in your life and relationships, and unless you know the language of emotions, you’ll lack the ability to communicate effectively and grow in knowledge and wisdom.
The need for expert content on emotions led our team of pastors and counselors to create a podcast series called Managing Your Emotions, where each episode deals with a different type of emotion: how to identify it, how to understand it, and how to manage it.
To make the podcast series even more useful, we’ve created a companion Managing Your Emotions Small Group Study, and we’re offering it to you for free!
The Small Group Study consists of a Leader’s Guide and a Participant’s Guide, which include all the information you need for an 8-lesson study, as well as links to the podcast episodes that coordinate with each lesson.
There are 8 lessons in the Managing Your Emotions Study:
Lesson 1: Your Emotional Dashboard

Lesson 4: The Roots & Weeds of Sadness & Grief
