The Heart of Anger

How the Bible Transforms Anger in Our Understanding and Experience

De: Christopher Ash, Steve Midgley

Narrado por: Peter Worrall

How should Christians understand anger, evaluate it, and respond for good?

We all struggle with anger at times: Our plans suddenly fall through, we lose a prized possession, or our reputation is called into question. More often than not, when anger knocks at the doors of our hearts, we easily allow it to take over. But what if getting to the heart of our anger also reveals the way to transform it?

Christopher Ash and Steve Midgley address this question by bringing to bear what the whole Bible has to say about sinful anger — revealing that anger is the sinful response when something we value more than God is taken away or threatened. They reflect on biblical portraits of human anger, God’s righteous anger, and how only the gospel of Jesus Christ brings true freedom — transforming a heart of anger into a heart filled with the love of God.

Mortifying the sin of Anger

This book has been a blessing from God to workout the sinfulness of the sin of Anger. Truly identifying all the ways in which it manifests. Thank you for this Gift, and may He be glorified by the mortification of the sin of anger, which can only happen by His strength and prompting.

Cutting to the heart (pun intended)

What an incredible book! Almost every page is insightful and/or practical.

If you struggle with anger or know someone who does, this book would be an incredible resource to you.

Biblical, Practical, Helpful

i found this beneficial to addressing root, heart issues behind my own anger from a Biblical world view that the roots of anger (expectations and desires in the heart, not the provocation). It focuses on the need for the gospel to change our desires and focus. If one wants to learn anger management techniques like venting to a friend, centering your breathing, or exercising, this is not the book for you.

Of utmost necessity

There is not a person alive who this book will not speak directly to their own experience. It is a must to understand your own motives.

Very eye opening to the subtelty of anger.

Very helpfull to reckognize the truth of anger that is hidden behind irritation and aggitation.

Long and drawn out

This audiobook is probably good if you read if instead of listen. The narrator can make or break a book. This narrator is No Bueno!

Did not like the reader. Voice, intonation, inflect.

Content is fine and useful, I got the book to read as well. I just didn’t like the reader of the book on this audio production.
