Biblical EQ: A Christian Hanbook For Emotional Transformation
Biblical EQ is designed to accomplish three main purposes:
1. To help you to grow spiritually and emotionally and to have a sound biblical basis for understanding emotions.
2. To help you to develop leaders in your church or missions agency who are "stress resistant" and who can manage their emotions well and fulfill their calling as Christian leaders and witnesses of the gospel.
3. As a resource for Christian counselors and qualified therapists seeking an integrated approach of biblical perspectives and the best secular techniques and understanding.
Emotions are a very important part of the Christian life. Emotional intelligence (EQ) is especially important when it comes to leadership and ministry skills. Biblical EQ uses the Bible and the character of Jesus to show how we can grow both spiritually and emotionally into mature human beings.
Biblical EQ uses the life and character of Jesus as the model to emulate. Jesus Christ shows us what it is like to be a perfect person, whose emotions are both well-expressed and well-managed in love.
The Holy Spirit is God resident in human personality, with the power to change us into the image of Jesus Christ. We are not left alone to change ourselves! God the Holy Spirit will help us!
So Biblical EQ will take you on a bible-based journey through the world of emotional growth and emotional intelligence.
You will learn how to change your perspectives, your beliefs, thoughts and intents of the heart, manage your physical reactions to emotions, control stress, have faith and mastery in life and how to grow in love, social skills and Christian leadership.
