Are Pentecostals Too Emotional?

Many Christians appreciate heartfelt worship, but where is the line between genuine spiritual expression and emotionalism? Critics have long argued that Pentecostals place too much emphasis on feelings, while Pentecostals maintain that biblical faith engages both the heart and the mind.

In this episode of Apostolic Life in the 21st Century, Dr. David K. Bernard examines the biblical role of emotions in the Christian life and addresses one of the most common criticisms of Pentecostal worship. He explains what Scripture teaches about the role of emotional expression in worship and how Pentecostals should respond to accusations that they elevate emotion above biblical truth.

Whether you are a lifelong Pentecostal, new to the faith, or simply interested in learning what the Bible says about worship, this episode provides a balanced, biblical perspective on the relationship between truth and emotion in corporate worship and in the life of the individual believer.
