Your anger, instead of becoming your worst nightmare, can be your best friend. In fact, God wants to turn your anger into a tool that will serve you and help you like never before. Join Chip as he unpacks this powerful tool from God’s Word.
Introduction: Anger is a secondary emotion
- It is easier to be angry than to face the deeper, more sensitive issues of anger.
- Anger is not the problem. Anger is the red warning light on the dashboard – something under the hood is amiss.
- We cover stuff inside that God wants to heal, forgive, and restore.
Three root issues behind anger:
1. HURT = Real or perceived unmet needs
- Tool: “I feel….” Messages – Attack the issue not the person
2. FRUSTRATION = Real or perceived unmet expectations
- Tool: “I desire…” vs. “I demand….” Statements
3. INSECURITY = Real or perceived attacks on my worth
- Tool: Ask yourself, “Why am I feeling threatened?”
Summary: The first step in overcoming the destructive power of anger is the COURAGE to look below the surface.
- Anger is the light on the dashboard; something’s wrong under the hood.
- Anger is our way of protecting ourselves from painful, hard-to-deal-with hurts, frustrations, and insecurities.
- Anger has many faces and despite its power for good, it destroys, unless we learn to…-Acknowledge it-Back-track to the 1st emotion-Consider the real cause-Determine to rightly respond
