What can turn a normal rational person into an out of control monster - destroying relationships, abusing children, spewing threats, and alienating lifelong friends? Join Chip as he reveals the source of that devastating power, and how to keep it under control.

Introduction: James 1:19-20

A look at anger from God’s perspective:

Definition: Anger is neither good nor bad; it is a “charged,” morally neutral, emotional response of protective preservation.
Positively – It can be a healthy emotion that motivates us to correct attitudes, behaviors, or injustices that we perceive to be wrong. -Eph 4:26-27
Negatively – It can be an unhealthy and destructive emotional response to protect us from (real or perceived) hurt, frustration, or personal attack. -Pro. 19:19; 22:24; 29:22

Anger wears many masks: We EXPRESS our ANGER in such a wide variety of ways that many people assume anger is not an issue in their life.

Spewers: Anger is necessary – They’re exploding or calculating time bombs
Stuffers: Anger is wrong – They deny and avoid OR pretend and ignore
Leakers: Showing anger is wrong – They’re passive-aggressive
