Christian Anger resource: How to Handle Adversity by Charles F. Stanley
NOTE: Last week we posted a series: ANGRY Children of a Loving God.
I wanted to point you toward an additional resource I discovered from a recent study on Christian Anger. I have not read this entire book, yet recommend it with confidence based on the attached:
It is important to support Christian authors by purchasing their books. Although many are recognized and trusted theologians like Dr. Stanley, many Christian authors are publishing wonderful contemporary resources.
Here is a link to Dr. Stanley’s book: InTouch Ministries.
Adversity is the chisel used by God to shape, define, and sculpt the lives of Christians into the reflection of Christ’s character.
Dr. Stanley teaches that everyone faces adversity- and the way you respond will determine how quickly you overcome life’s trials. Learn what a powerful combination praising, obeying, and waiting on the Lord can be. Softcover book, 208 pages.
Price reduced.
Everyone encounters adversity in this world. Pray to handle it with Christ’s calmness.
Please do not try to handle anger on your own. Ask your pastor, priest, or a Christian Counselor to help you with any adversity which causes anger, destroys relationships, and hurts you and your loved ones. – Roger

ANGRY Children of a Loving God – Part 5
Should ANGRY children of a loving God remain angry with anyone?
Mathew 18:15 “If another believer sins against you, go privately and point out the offense.
17 If the person still refuses to listen, take your case to the church. Then if he or she won’t accept the church’s decision, treat that person as a pagan or a corrupt tax collector.
23 “Therefore, the Kingdom of Heaven can be compared to a king who decided to bring his accounts up to date with servants who had borrowed money from him…
32 Then the king called in the man he had forgiven and said, ‘You evil servant! I forgave you that tremendous debt because you pleaded with me. 33 Shouldn’t you have mercy on your fellow servant, just as I had mercy on you?’ 34 Then the angry king sent the man to prison to be tortured until he had paid his entire debt.
35 “That’s what my heavenly Father will do to you if you refuse to forgive your brothers and sisters from your heart.”
Are YOU humble enough to FORGIVE the one nearest your heart who has ANGERED you most?
- LOVE and do not hate.
- Take your anger to God.
- Let Him deal with your anger.
- He will repay.
- And He will change your heart, IF you let Him.
This is the command of Jesus:
“LOVE the LORD your God with ALL your heart, AND your neighbor as yourself.
Closing consideration for ALL ANGRY children of a loving God:
“Christ suffered and died for our sins. Jesus IS redemption for our beloved soul from the deserved anger of our loving God.
