Description
A lot of people believe that all anger is wrong, sinful, and destructive, so they have two choices: to try to stuff this powerful emotion deep enough so it doesn’t see the light of day or give up, give in, and let it control them. The first leads to implosions of depression or explosions when the pressure builds beyond the breaking point (or both), and the second makes us self-absorbed and hard to live with. In this workbook, Dr. Gary Oliver offers a third alternative: to see all our emotions, including anger, as gifts from God and part of what it means to be created in His image. Then, we can use this powerful emotion in the way God intended (and the way Jesus modeled for us): to seek justice, set boundaries, and offer a path forward to deeper, richer relationships.
Yes, we’ve reacted the same way (stuffing or venting) for years, but change is possible. As scary as it may sound at first, we can uncover the true source of our anger so it’s no longer such a mystery, and with God’s help, we can begin to express it in healthy, productive, God-honoring, relationship-building ways.
If unhealthy anger is a problem for you, don’t wait. Dive into this workbook.
