How should Christian leaders deal with anger and frustration without stuffing emotions or reacting in ways they regret?

In this episode, Josh and Corina talk about anger management for Christian leaders, emotional self-control, renewing your mind, and how to respond with the Holy Spirit instead of reacting from emotion. Corina shares a personal story about losing her temper with her son during homeschooling and what God taught her about pausing, asking the Holy Spirit how to respond, and choosing love instead of reaction.

They also talk about how frustration can reveal deeper beliefs, stress, exhaustion, or unresolved emotional issues. As leaders, parents, spouses, and pastors, we have to become aware of what is happening inside us so we can lead from health instead of anger.

Anger doesn’t have to control the way you lead. God can heal the places underneath the frustration so you can respond with peace, self-control, and love.
