Jolene L。,
In all honesty, this book wasn't at all what I was expecting。 At times I felt as though she was giving us cliff notes from her therapy sessions or what what she learned in in the first weeks of Psych 101。 Her personal stories were borderline whiney and gossipy。 I had to skim many of the stories because it was too much。 This book also felt as though I was reading a Brene Brown book, rather than a book from a Christian author。The author continuously mentions, "Before we dive into the process。" ove In all honesty, this book wasn't at all what I was expecting。 At times I felt as though she was giving us cliff notes from her therapy sessions or what what she learned in in the first weeks of Psych 101。 Her personal stories were borderline whiney and gossipy。 I had to skim many of the stories because it was too much。 This book also felt as though I was reading a Brene Brown book, rather than a book from a Christian author。The author continuously mentions, "Before we dive into the process。" over and over。 One would think that due to this build up of the "process" (which isn't revealed till around page 101) that it would be some amazing tool to include in our daily lives but unfortunately, that was not the case。 As far as the Christian aspect, she at times makes it seem as though she is just like God, that she should take on the same characteristics as Our Lord and Savior。 Just because God felt and experienced things doesn't at all mean that we need to place ourselves right there next to Him on HIS throne。 He's God and we are His children。 Period。 Lastly, I wish she would have just turned to God in her moments of trouble instead of placing Dr。 C upon the throne。 At times her worship of this doctor was a bit unsettling。 Thank you Netgalley for allowing me the opportunity to read this book。 。。。more

Thanks to WaterBrook & Multnomah, WaterBrook for the advance copy of this book!Jennie Allen has such a fantastic way of writing completely engaging, but powerful and transformative, books。 Untangle Your Emotions is no exception。 Jennie teaches us how emotions are meant to help and inform us, be felt, connect us with others and to God, and to provide healing and change in our lives。 I love how she also discussed some of the nuances in the church surrounding emotions (i。e。 they're feminine, should Thanks to WaterBrook & Multnomah, WaterBrook for the advance copy of this book!Jennie Allen has such a fantastic way of writing completely engaging, but powerful and transformative, books。 Untangle Your Emotions is no exception。 Jennie teaches us how emotions are meant to help and inform us, be felt, connect us with others and to God, and to provide healing and change in our lives。 I love how she also discussed some of the nuances in the church surrounding emotions (i。e。 they're feminine, should be suppressed, or are sinful to feel)。 Absolutely loved this book! 。。。more
Kelly Pramberger,
Classic Jennie Allen book! I love reading her advice and stories。 They are always heartfelt and brave。 This was no exception。 I found it to be a quick and fast-paced book。 Emotions are unraveling in my own life and this book helped me to make sense of them, Thanks to NetGalley for the ARC。 Five stars。
