Let\u2019s be honest, anger shows up in every home, every relationship, and even in the church. It can flare up with a harsh word or simmer beneath the surface with a cold shoulder. But left unchecked, anger can wreak havoc on the relationships God has called us to nurture. Uncontrolled, sinful anger is a danger to our family communication and ultimately our unity.<\/p>\n<p>Whether we\u2019re talking about your family or the church family, the way we deal with anger will either strengthen or sabotage our relationships. Anger itself isn&#8217;t always sin, but what we do with it often is. We need God&#8217;s power and wisdom to respond in a way that builds up rather than tears down. In the apostle Paul\u2019s letter to the Ephesians, he exhorted believers that they must control their anger as members of one another in Christ Jesus. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":13495,"template":"","tags":[2654],"series":[2974],"scripture-book":[1316],"scripture-chapter":[1337],"speaker":[2007],"class_list":["post-13493","message","type-message","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","tag-anger","series-family-talk","scripture-book-ephesians","scripture-chapter-1337","speaker-gary-combs"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.garycombs.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/message\/13493","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.garycombs.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/message"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.garycombs.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/message"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.garycombs.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/message\/13493\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":13496,"href":"https:\/\/www.garycombs.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/message\/13493\/revisions\/13496"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.garycombs.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/13495"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.garycombs.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=13493"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.garycombs.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=13493"},{"taxonomy":"series","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.garycombs.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/series?post=13493"},{"taxonomy":"scripture-book","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.garycombs.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/scripture-book?post=13493"},{"taxonomy":"scripture-chapter","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.garycombs.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/scripture-chapter?post=13493"},{"taxonomy":"speaker","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.garycombs.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/speaker?post=13493"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
