Dust of the Ground: Where Emotions, Faith, and the Body Meet
A Cup of Soul with Theresa & Candis
.
What if your emotions aren't a spiritual problem to fix—but a sacred message to tend?
.
In this week's episode of A Cup of Soul, Theresa and Candis invite you into a grace-filled, Scripture-anchored conversation about how God designed us as embodied beings—formed from the dust of the ground and filled with His breath.
.
Drawing from Genesis 2:7, this episode explores the powerful connection between body, soul, and spirit, and why emotions don't live in the mind alone—they are experienced in the body. Together, we talk about fear, grief, anxiety, numbness, exhaustion, and why these responses are not signs of weak faith, but signals that God cares about.
.
You'll hear:
• Why emotions often show up physically
• How the body "keeps score" during stress, trauma, and prolonged pressure
• Why bypassing the body can hinder healing in faith spaces
• How Jesus modeled embodied emotion—and deep trust
• Why listening to your body can be an act of worship, not self-centeredness
• How Scripture, community, rest, and support work together in healing
.
This episode is especially for the woman who has been powering through, serving faithfully, and smiling on the outside while carrying unspoken tension on the inside. It's an invitation to come to Jesus whole, not edited.
.
If you've ever wondered whether your emotions are spiritual—or if your body responses matter to God—this conversation is for you.

Sisterfriend, you need to pull up a chair for this one.
