The Great Danger of Psychologizing Our Anger

Anger is dangerous. When we get angry, we may hurt others and damage relationships, whether it's through bitterness, passive aggressiveness, verbal abuse, or violence. We can't control our anger, but we can respond to it better. This starts from admitting that we are responsible for our anger, and that, as Paul warns us in Ephesians, anger can lead to sin. Then, after recognizing this as a concern, we can turn to the Lord to find healing and peace.
