Is It a Sin to Be Angry as a Christian?
Manage episode 490283278 series 3425719
Is it okay for Christians to get angry? In this taboo-breaking episode of "You, Me, and Jesus," Keenya explores the often-silenced emotion of anger and its place in a healthy faith life. She shares times when she's been angry with God, with the church, and with situations—and how she's learned to process this emotion without shame.
Discover the difference between holy and harmful anger as Keenya unpacks how even Jesus expressed righteous anger in the temple. Learn how honest anger actually deepened her relationship with God rather than damaged it, and practical ways to express and process anger in healthy ways.
In our "What Would Jesus Actually Do?" segment, we explore how Jesus might respond to someone angry about injustice in their community—affirming their anger as appropriate (like His own table-flipping moment) while guiding them toward constructive action.
Whether you've been taught that good Christians never get angry, you're currently wrestling with anger toward God or the church, or you're looking for biblical ways to process righteous anger about injustice, this episode offers liberating truth with grace and humor.
