3. 10 SYMPTOMS OF EMOTIONALLY UNHEALTHY SPIRITUALITY 1.Using God to run from God. (Prayers about my will not His) 2. Ignoring the emotions of anger, sadness, and fear. (I’m rarely honest about the feelings, hurts, and pains beneath the surface.) 3. Dying to the wrong things. (Denying healthy pleasures of life – friendships, joy, music, beauty, laughter, etc. Not dying to self-protectiveness, defensiveness, lack of vulnerability, and judgementalism) 4. Denying the past impact on the present. (Never consider how family origin, culture, and significant people and events from the past have shaped your present.) 5. Dividing life into ‘secular’ and ‘sacred’ compartments. (Compartmentalizing God to ‘Christian Activities’ while forgetting about Him when at work, shopping, studying, or recreating)

4. 6. Doing for God instead of being with God. (You tend to evaluate your spirituality based on how much you are doing for God.) 7. Spiritualizing away conflict. (You usually miss out on true peace by smoothing over disagreements, burying tensions, and avoiding conflict, rather than disrupting false peace as Jesus did.) 8. Covering over brokenness, weakness, and failure. (You have a hard time speaking freely about your weaknesses, failures, and mistakes.) 9. Living without limits and boundaries. (Those close to you would say that you often “try to do it all” or bite off more than you can chew.) 10. Judging the spiritual journeys of others. (You often find yourself occupied and bothered by the faults of those around you.)
