Danger in itself is not wrong. But there are temnptations we face to deal with our anger unhelpfully.

I want to talk today about the danger of anger; or more accurately about the temptation to let our anger consume us.

Playing The Fool Series

based on 48 ratings

Kids may deal with smart-mouths in the schoolyard by chanting, “Sticks and stones may break my bones, but names will never hurt me.” But that’s rubbish! Don’t you believe it. Names do hurt. Words hurt. The things we say to each ...read more
