Item Description...
Is it okay to get angry? Andrew Lester thinks it is, and in this accessibly written book he shows the reader how to understand anger so that it will be helpful, not hurtful, to Christian life. Lester, a popular professor and author, challenges misconceptions about anger that have followed Christians for centuries. By comparing the research of psychologists and sociologists with the teachings of Christianity, Lester uncovers a basic truth: anger occurs when you, or those people or things close to you, are threatened. Lester explores the biblical teachings about anger, focusing on the destructiveness of the dark side of anger as well as the creativity that can result from appropriate anger. Anger must be faced, he says, or it will become destructive. He shows how to face your anger and also how to know when it is time to get help.

 | Excellent book about how a Christian should view anger Sep 24, 2007 |
| This fairly short book (120 pages) is packed with accessible information about anger and the Christian's response to their own anger. Rather than making a blanket statement that anger is wrong, Andrew Lester shows why it is important (as a reaction to a perceived threat), how we can use it, with examples of both Jesus and God being angry in the Bible, as well as offering processes to deal with anger creatively. I found the insight into what causes anger to be fascinating and very helpful in understanding myself and others. There are lots of examples from everyday lives which help to illustrate his points and overall the book is a very worthwhile read. Furthermore, despite being an American book he gives few examples that don't work in British culture and writes in a tolerant and engaging style which works well over here. | | | Write your own review about Anger: Discovering Your Spiritual Ally
