How Christians Deal with Anger in a Christlike Way

In this episode of Contending for the Word Q&A, Dave Jenkins addresses the important and deeply personal issue of anger. Scripture does not ignore anger—it speaks to it clearly. While the Bible acknowledges that there is such a thing as righteous anger, it also warns that most human anger does not produce the righteousness of God. Drawing from James 1:19–20, Ephesians 4:26–27, and Proverbs 15:1, this episode explains how believers can respond to anger in a Christlike way—slow, measured, and governed by truth and love. In this episode, listeners will learn how to: • Distinguish between righteous anger and sinful anger • Slow down reactive responses • Address anger before it becomes bitterness • Replace destructive reactions with grace-filled responses Christ is both our model and our help in moments of emotional intensity.
