S6 E4 | Why Do I Feel So Angry?

Lysa TerKeurst
About this episode

Description:

Even if you don't consider yourself an "angry person," we have all experienced situations that get us fired up ... or even fed up. The truth is our feelings are trying to tell us something. So rather than just "manage" our anger, we can interview our anger and find out what's going on and what needs to be tended to.


This episode is a part of the newest season of Therapy & Theology: "You Asked ... We're Answering." Through podcast reviews, direct messages on social media, and more, Lysa TerKeurst; Licensed Professional Counselor Jim Cress; and Proverbs 31 Ministries' Director of Theological Research, Dr. Joel Muddamalle, collected your most asked questions. Now they're spending an entire season answering!
