"Be angry but do not sin; do not let the sun set on your anger, and do not leave room for the devil."~ Ephesians 4:26-27ANGER. It's a word that brings up so many feelings and reactions for each of us. Some struggle to control their anger, and others are tempted to ignore or squash their angry feelings. How are we, as followers of Christ, supposed to understand anger? Is anger an emotion or a sin? Is it involuntary or can we learn to control it? Is there a way that we might even be able to bring good out of anger?In this episode, Fr. Nathan LaLiberte joins Pat & Kenna to talk about a view of anger from a perspective of sound psychology and Catholic teaching. You'll come away with a better understanding of how to identify, communicate, and process anger in ways that can actually benefit our relationships with God and others.Episode 26 Show NotesChapters:0:00 Introduction and Highs & Hards14:08: What is anger?21:45: The power of anger to overcome evil32:17: What do we with our anger?42:07: Having empathy for my anger47:23: Speaking on behalf of my anger53:51: Challenge By ChoiceSend us a text.
