NewGrowth Minibooks - Controlling Anger: Responding Constructively When Life Goes Wrong

Booklet Description:

What makes you angry? Sometimes it's small things: traffic jams, a waiter's mistake, or a friend's inattention. And sometimes it's big things: betrayal, injustice, meanness, violence, oppression, selfishness, and lying. How do you deal with your anger? Do you dump it on those around you? Or stuff it deep inside?

David Powlison surprises us with the news that God is angry too, but his anger is expressed constructively, by giving his own Son to right what's wrong with this world. Learn the five questions to ask yourself that will help you express your anger God's way in the difficult situations and relationships you face every day.
