Unlock Now The Other Side Of Love: Handling Anger In A Godly Way Fashioned By Gary Chapman Released Through Publication
Ultimately, rather unremberable. One of the best books I have ever read, It was very positive, practical and enlightening,
When we were engaged my mom took us and Bill and Jessamy to Gary Chapman's Toward a Growing Marriage conference in Temple and she bought this book then.
Handling anger has never been one of my strengths and then after having Gloria and not sleeping and have a 'strongwilled' two year, it became a bit of an issue, so I finally read this.
He who is very funny too says we get angry because we are made in the image of God and it is our response to wrong, so anger itself is not bad, only how we handle it.
The point of anger is for us to take positive loving action, Then there are two types of angervalid diminutivesomeone really sins against you and distorted only a perceived wrongthis was really eye opening to me on how to see my anger because much of what I get angry at is someone just being human not intentionally sinning against me.
He gives lots of step by steps on anger in different situations I am going to outline the ones that meant the most to me

Anger is a universal human experience, For many of us, it is the single
greatest challenge in every area of our lives, We have been taught that
anger itself is a sin and should be avoided at all costs, However, anger
is also understood to be nature s way of preparing man to respond in
times of danger, How then do we go about bringing this volatile emotion
under the Lordship of Jesus Christ
Gary Chapman gives us the perfect tool to answer this
and many other
questions in The Other Side of Love.
In this book, he takes a fresh look
at the origin and purpose of anger, Asserting that anger is rooted in the
holy nature of God, he reverently explains that anger flows from God s
holiness and love.
Gary Chapman draws on his extensive counseling experience to instruct us
how to positively process our anger, This will help us to create and
further cultivate healthy relationships, Helpful study questions for group
or personal use conclude each chapter,
Don t let anger get the best of you, Victory begins with understanding.
Now is the time to make this critical investment in your walk with Christ,
We all have stuff in our lives: pain from childhood, pain from disappointments and losses and few, if any, of us grew up with parents that knew how to deal with their own negative emotions in a healthy way which, in turn, served as a poor model, if not a vacuum, for many of us as we grew into adulthood.
This statement is not meant to shame anyone, but rather acknowledge the reality that many of us didn't have the tools to process anger and negative emotions, as generations before us often did not learn these tools either this creating a vicious cycle.
This book truly helped me begin the process of exploring the roots of my own anger, and speak honestly with the Lord and with myself about what I'm feeling and why so I can process these feelings in a healthy way.
As the scriptures say repeatedly: "Be angry, but sin not",
If you have ever wondered about how to deal with your own anger in a breakthrough way and from a godly perspective, I highly recommend this book as a starting place in your own healing journey.
