Seven Deadly Sins: Anger - The Trainwreck Emotion | May 7, 2023
Anger can seize hold of our mind, cloud our judgement, and make us do things we regret. But more than a bad personality trait, wrath points to a problem with our soul that only the grace of God can heal. Join us this Sunday as we continue to dive into the Seven Deadly Sins.

Frederick Buechner: “Of the Seven Deadly Sins, anger is possibly the most fun. To lick your wounds, to smack your lips over grievances long past … to savor to the last toothsome morsel the pain you are giving back — in many ways it is a feast fit for a king. The chief drawback is that what you are wolfing down is yourself. The skeleton at the feast is you.”
