David Seamands, a counselor, says this:

"Many years ago I was driven to the conclusion that the two major causes of most emotional problems among Christians are these: the failure to understand, receive, and live out God’s grace and forgiveness; and the failure to give out that love, forgiveness, and grace to other people. We read, we hear, we believe a theology of grace. But that’s not the way we live. The good news of the gospel of grace has not penetrated the level of our emotions."
