In this episode Randy + Taylor tackle the emotion of anger. It's easy for us to become angry. God's anger is not a sinful anger like the anger in our hearts. God is perfectly righteous and perfectly holy in His anger. So anger can be righteous — we see this exemplified in God. However, the anger in our hearts is typically rooted in a sinful desire. In order to test the source of our anger — we can ask ourselves questions to see if our anger in sinful. Are we angry because we did not get our way? Are we angry because we are jealous of what others have? Are we angry because of what we do not have? Is our anger prideful? Are we quick to anger rather than listening? http://openbible.info/topics/anger #christian #christianpodcast #christianmama #christiandad #biblicalliving #communityovercompetition #Godlovesyou #everythingchristian

But rest assured that the very Word of God proves that this isn't true. Reminding ourselves that there is not anything that God cannot handle. Source: http://www.openbible.info/topics/fear
