An exploration of Feelings & Emotion

In progress---just want to put a stake in the sand and say I'd like to explore this topic.

Guiding Questions:

How are we to interpret and manage our feelings?

What exactly are "feelings"---is this the exclusive territory of the soul?  What part is flesh? What part spirit?

When should we "listen" to our feelings?

When are our feelings an accurate indication of God and His Spirit?  How do we discern/determine this?

When are our feelings to be ignored or pressed through for a better aim?

How do hormones affect feelings?  Any research on this?

Discernment of feelings and spirits seems key here.
