How Should Christians Deal with Anger?

This video goes through part of the sermon on the mount where Jesus is talking about anger.

Anger is something I personally struggle with, and this passage is challenging to me. I hope this video encourages you and helps you to think about the times you get angry.

We all need to take a step back and ask why we’re getting angry and how God wants us to deal with it. Anger affects the way we relate to others, which matters to God.

Bible for the Busy Woman is a project I started to encourage women by bringing short expositions of scripture with the Biblical and historical background and help them to take a few minutes to reflect.

I have a BA in English from Framingham State University and an MA in Theological Studies from Trinity Evangelical Divinity School. I served in various ministries and taught the Bible for over 10 years. I currently write Christian fiction and nonfiction, and do freelance writing.

What are your tricks for dealing with anger?

I always dreamed of being a writer, but never thought I could make money doing it. So, after earning a BA in English and honing my reading, analytical, and writing skills, I settled for a more "stable" career in ministry (joking, of course!), bringing my love for the written word to my Biblical studies as I learned Greek and Hebrew, Exegesis and Theology while getting an MA in Theological Studies. I've worked in various ministry capacities in the church: children's minister, ministry staff (aka, "whatever needs doing"), ESL teacher, youth intern, and others. Though this blog is mostly about classic literature, I will probably throw in some thoughts on writing, occasional theological musings, or my reflections on emotional health, psychology, philosophy, or cultural topics. I am a thinker and a lover of many things! I am currently pursuing publishing my first children's novel while doing freelance writing (my profile here: https://www.upwork.com/o/profiles/users/~0104b8a9e8c1253315/). I like to paint (and may share some of them here someday!), enjoy the outdoors, learning, reading, and growing. I also love learning about other people and helping them to realize their gifts and potential.
