The Bible has some very clear truths about what happens when we are angry and what to do about it. In this episode, we'll study what the bible has to say about anger and how we can manage our angry feelings.
1. WHAT DOES IT SAY?
Psalm 4:4 (NIV) says, "In your anger do not sin; when you are on your beds, search your hearts and be silent." 
Proverbs 14:29 (NIV) says, "Whoever is patient has great understanding, but one who is quick-tempered displays folly." 
Ephesians 4:26-27 (NIV) advises, "In your anger do not sin: Do not let the sun go down while you are still angry, and do not give the devil a foothold."
2. WHAT'S THE BACKSTORY?
Tale as old as time: back in Genesis. Why do we get angry in the first place? Lots of reasons, some justified and some not.
Let’s talk about what happens when we are angry: we have a physiological reaction. Fight vs. flight
Anger demands an outlet, so we have to do something with it.
Turn outward: blame, bitterness, cynicism Turn inward: shame, depression
Either: unforgiveness
Backstory: the model of Jesus
3. WHAT DOES IT MEAN?
Anger is not sinful but easily leads to sin. Understanding and acknowledging anger and allowing God to correct and direct us in our pain is an important step toward moving through anger into love.
4. WHAT DOES IT MEAN FOR ME?
Remember that God can handle your emotions, even when you cannot!
