“The Selfless Life”

In Colossians 3:8, we’re called to rid ourselves of anger and rage. Anger itself is not a sin—it can be a helpful emotion to catalyze change, bring accountability, and keep us from harm. However, anger as a tool is challenging to get right. Your raging and ranting may seem effective, but the relational collateral damage may be irreparable. When you feel the root of anger take hold, take the bible's advice to arrive at anger only after great deliberation and dragging your feet. To experience the new life God has promised us, be slow to anger.
