What makes us angry?
24 Nov 2022 • From Bishop Richard Jackson
In this week’s video, Bishop Richard invites us to reflect on the difference between anger and righteous indignation as a motive for holy action.
'The key difference between anger that destroys and passion which motivates is where it's directed. Vengeful feelings to being slighted are sinful; they can only be dealt with by acknowledging that to God and seeking Christ's forgiveness. Hearts stirred to action by the pain and injustice felt by others are profoundly Christian; such feelings, rightly challenged, can be a great force for good and change.'
