Anger

Today, we studied John 2:13–22 to learn that healthy anger fights for restoration, not retaliation. Most of the time, our anger is misdirected, selfish, and destructive, pushing us away from God instead of toward him. Jesus shows us a better way. hHs anger at sin in the temple wasn’t for revenge, it was protective and restorative. He lived perfectly, never letting anger become self-justifying, and he died on the cross to take our sin and death, rising again to defeat them once and for all. We can entrust our anger, our sin, and our brokenness to God, knowing he will make all things right. We hope this message encourages and challenges you. Thanks for listening!
