We experience anger every day, but not all anger is wrong—and not all anger should be resisted. In this Connecting Podcast, Paul and Shelby Abbott begin an extended conversation on the blessings and dangers of anger.

Anger, while not listed as a fruit of the Spirit, can be a righteous, God-honoring response. Our God is filled with holy anger, and as his image-bearers, we are called to reflect his character.

That means we have the capacity for godly anger, and there are real blessings that can come with it. But sin has corrupted our hearts, giving us an equally real capacity to twist something good into something destructive. What begins as righteous anger can quickly become selfish and harmful.

The Bible is shockingly honest about anger, and Paul and Shelby are here to connect the transforming power of Jesus Christ to our everyday lives as they explore both the blessings and the dangers of anger.

This month, attorney Matthew Martens joins us on the Connecting Podcast. He has both prosecuted and defended accused murderers, served a US Supreme Court Justice, and worked for the President Bush Administration.

In his 25+ year career, he is one of a few attorneys who has won cases in all four areas of law: civil plaintiff, civil defendant, criminal prosecution, and criminal defendant.

Let's discover what the Bible has to say about justice, and Matt's new book, Reforming Criminal Justice: A Christian Proposal.
