EPISODE 831: Shame And Ashame

Shame is one of the first emotions mentioned in the Bible. In the Garden of Eden, Adam and Eve never felt it even though they were naked. But after the Fall, shame becomes constant and unavoidable. Shame is an internal emotional state. You can feel it without displaying any outward physical signs. Here are two types of shame we will highlight today: 1. Unwanted exposure -is perhaps the first thing that comes to mind when we think of shame. This refers to when you draw attention to yourself in a way you don’t want(i.e. doing something embarrassing in public, like a trip or fall) 2. Disappointed expectation - when you have or set a goal and you fall short. To minimize frustration or shame, you need to minimize expectation of man.
