Jesus experienced emotions. This is part of what it means to be truly human. “The Emotions of Jesus” is a five-week series reflecting on passages that describe Jesus`s emotions so that we can think more deeply about the gift of our own emotions. With Jesus, feelings such as compassion, anger, grief, joy, and love can be honoured as important aspects of our spiritual formation.
