Dr. Kevin Chapman shares biblical principles for mastering our emotions through cognitive behavioral therapy techniques that align with God's Word. His robust approach shows how we can transform our emotional responses by understanding the true purpose of emotions and learning to respond to them in healthier ways.

• Emotions aren't our problem – our responses to them create distress.
• The "Emotional Seal" framework: Situation, Emotion, After, Later helps identify emotional patterns.
• Emotional avoidance (suppressing feelings) brings temporary relief but worsens emotions long-term.
• Seven "being skills" form the foundation of emotional mastery, starting with being present.
• Kingdom questions help challenge negative thought patterns with biblical truth.
• Luke 21:19 reveals we are meant to "possess" (master) our souls.
• Neuroticism is a tendency to experience intense negative emotions that can be overcome.
• Mastering emotions requires consistent practice, not just management.
• Understanding the difference between living in the "kingdom of feelings" vs. God's kingdom.
• Genetic predispositions from the Fall can be transformed through intentional reprogramming.
