The Spacious Heart: The God-given Role, Nature, and Purpose of Human Emotions (Daniel Bowen, 2026)
The Spacious Heart is a theological, pastoral and psychologically informed meditation on the emotional life. It asks what emotions are for, how they are formed, how they become wounded, and how they may be healed and reordered under grace.
This book resists two shallow alternatives: treating emotions as masters to obey, or as enemies to suppress. Instead, it receives them as part of God-given creaturely life, to be brought truthfully before God and formed in love. Its hope is a spacious heart: tender, discerning, steadfast, repentant, joyful and alive to worship.
