Anger may begin with something that truly is wrong, but wrath can take root when we start believing it’s our job to make it right.

There are times when our desire for justice is completely understandable. But when we hold tightly to the outcome and take responsibility for fixing what only God can handle, that anger can begin to weigh heavily on our hearts.

In this episode, Angie steps into Proverbs 15:1 for a closer look at wrath and what happens when our desire for justice becomes a need to make things right ourselves. We’re reminded that we can acknowledge what is wrong, use our voices when needed, and still choose gentle responses while trusting God with the justice and outcomes that belong to Him.

What you’ll hear in this week’s episode

• Why wrath is about more than explosive anger
• How a healthy desire for justice can turn into a need to make things right ourselves
• What the original Hebrew word for “wrath” reveals about the effect anger can have on our hearts and minds
