Anger Can Be Good And Healthy — But Only To A Point

Anger, like all emotions, isn’t inherently bad. It just is. Even God gets angry. But left unexamined, it can become corrosive — festering in silence or exploding into harm. The healthiest anger starts with honesty: What’s really beneath the rage? Sadness? Fear? Disappointment? When anger is softened by truth and shaped by the Spirit, it becomes fuel for compassion, not destruction — a surprising virtue in a world full of vice.
