Angry. Afraid. Sad. Ashamed. For many people, the struggle with emotions is long lasting and deeply disturbing. When you feel negative emotions, how do you respond? In a culture where anxiety is an epidemic and there are myriad ways to numb our discomfort, are you often overwhelmed? Or do you simply check out? Truth is, Jesus longs to be present with us when we are in emotional distress. God never meant for his children to hide from their shame, pretend they're not angry, run away when they're scared, or anesthetize their sadness. Our emotions serve a purpose, by design! In his book, Mood Food, Dr. Melvin W. Hanna examines human emotions through a biblical lens and tells how to move on from fear to faith, sadness to comfort, shame to a new identity. "My wife and I found that many people, both young and old from many cultures, struggle with fears which keep them from entering into the fullness of life or doing the will of God. Still others wrestle with anger because of the injustice of the abuse they've suffered, or because they feel helpless to change an abusive situation. Their life experiences and emotional consequences differ, but there is a common theme. These people suffer emotional oppression, locked in an emotional prison from which they feel powerless to escape. I want to raise hope that there is a way out of this emotional prison. This way out does not involve a "quick fix," but instead involves learning a new way to live. In this book I present a case that achieving an ongoing relational connection with Jesus is the first step in a journey out of emotional bondage."-Author Melvin H. Hanna By gaining an understanding of our emotional makeup through a biblical perspective in Mood Food, Dr. Hanna reveals God's original design for human emotions. He shares proven, scripture-based strategies to transform your emotional life, redirect your emotions to move you into a deeper relationship with God, and help accomplish His purposes for your life. Complete with end-of-chapter reflection exercises, Mood Food is an ideal personal or group study.

Review
"...many Christians are overwhelmed and find their emotions painful or confusing, either because they misunderstand their emotions, or mishandle them. When they lose control of their emotions they feel stunted and fear that God has abandoned them. This is why Melvin Hanna's book, Mood Food, is a welcome resource in a time when there is much confusion about the role emotions play in the lives of Christian believers. The main themes of the book point us back to scripture and how we can use the spiritual discipline of learning to converse with Jesus about our emotional states and transform these emotions so that they help us to discover God's purpose for them." -Archibald D. Hart, Ph.D., FPPR. Senior Professor of Psychology and Dean Emeritus, Graduate School of Psychology, Fuller Theological Seminary, Pasadena, California. “In an age where a person's immature emotions are often sabotaging his success and relationships this is a very welcome and much needed work. Melvin Hanna writes out of a wealth of experience teaching students at the University of the Nations in many countries of the world.� He is greatly respected by students and his University colleagues.� This lucid, practical and helpful approach in developing emotional maturity is both refreshing and life changing.” – Dr. Bruce Thompson, International Dean Emeritus, College of Counseling and Health Care, University of the Nations "How do we harness core emotions such as shame, fear, anger, and sadness to allow them to work for us rather than against us?� Dr. Hanna confronts this question with the rationality one would expect of a chemistry professor, but with the insight and compassion of a follower of Jesus Christ.� God created us with emotions for a purpose: to motivate us to glorify Him.� The new way of living that this book proposes is the life-long habit of conversing with Jesus about the emotions we feel in given situations and listening to His reply. As I read this book I stopped to ponder Hanna’s advice.� What would my life have been like had I paused to ask God how to deal with emotional situations?� The answer came to me before the question was formed.� I think it will to all of Dr. Hanna’s readers. I highly recommend this book as an outstanding guide to daily living."� -Keith M. McDonald� M.D., Author of A Time to Mourn , A Time to Dance, and Bristlecone Mountain

A quick read with profound insights!
By Beth E. Rimmer
So often I have been the victim of my emotions without understanding why and, more importantly, not knowing how to escape. This book provides solid, practical, and scripture based ways to deal with negative emotions. One of the messages that has stayed with me and helped me on numerous occasions is that I need to consciously invite Jesus in to the situation when I find myself in the throes of anger, fear, worry, etc. This simple but profound step has brought perspective and peace. Wish I had read it earlier in my life!

Reading this brief book about our ‘God given emotions’ reminded ...
By V. Cobbey
Reading this brief book about our ‘God given emotions’ reminded me of another small book: The Practice of the Presence of God, by Brother Lawrence. Brother Lawrence back in the 1600s shared in a few conversations and letters how he developed his habit of conversing with God continually. Mel Hanna in this 21st century shares with us how we can see our emotions “as a path to deeper intimacy with the triune God.” He also writes about conversations with Jesus. He writes both to those who feel overwhelmed by their emotions – and to those who may have denied or are out of touch with their emotions (as he says he was for many years.) His writing is based on Scripture and experience: years of study as well as teaching. I found it helpful and encouraging.

Insightful, readable, practical
By Lisa
This is an insightful and easy to read book on God's purpose for emotions. There are practical exercises throughout the book to aid personal revelation and growth. I found the chapter on fear particularly clear and practical. I wish that I had received more teaching on emotions earlier in my spiritual walk as I increasingly see how vital this is for Christian maturity. It would be excellent to work through and discuss with a church small group as each chapter is self-contained. It takes the focus to deep heart work rather than changing surface behaviour. I recommend this book to others who want to deepen their understanding in this area of emotional maturity and to journey towards wholeness.
