Jesus Over Everything "Women Shouldn’t Get Angry"
Is there something you used to think—perhaps about faith, life, or relationships—that you now see differently? In this brand-new season of the Jesus Over Everything show, titled “I Used to Think,” Lisa Whittle unpacks popular misconceptions she’s held in her own life and offers insight on how God can transform perspectives over time.
Opening the season by tackling the sensitive subject of women and anger, Lisa shares vulnerably from her own experience and examines the difference between those who express their anger and those who suppress it.
Lisa reveals how she used to believe anger wasn’t a problem for her. But now, with a fresh Biblical perspective and some eye-opening insights from a poll she shared on social media, she offers insight on valuable questions like: Why do Christian women avoid anger? How important is it to identify the source of your anger? If Jesus ever expressed anger, what can you learn from it?
Drawing on scriptural truths, Lisa outlines what the Bible says about anger, teaches how to differentiate between righteous and self-absorbed anger, and discusses why you may need to reevaluate your perspective on women and anger.
This season opener is packed with valuable questions for reflection and practical antidotes to help you navigate anger when it arises—so don’t miss out!
