When Your Anger Reveals What You Really Believe About God
Have you ever noticed how a small inconvenience-a spilled coffee, a missed text, a traffic jam-can unleash a fury completely disproportionate to the offense? That rage isn't really about the coffee. It's about something far deeper. What if every emotion you feel-from the flash of anger to the pit of despair-is actually a theological statement, a confession about what you believe God will or won't do for you? This is the radical premise at the heart of a work that's been quietly transforming how people understand their inner lives for decades. Rather than treating emotions as problems to manage or sins to confess, this approach sees them as messengers from a battlefield-signals that reveal where we're fighting, what we're fighting for, and ultimately, whether we're moving toward God or away from Him. The question isn't whether you should feel angry, afraid, or ashamed. The question is: what are those feelings trying to tell you about your relationship with the Divine?
