The angry Christian

"The Christian tradition has long held that anger is sinful and to be avoided, but respected scholar Andrew Lester argues that the capacity for anger is one of God's good gifts. Here, Lester incorporates the newest behavioral research models, biblical and theological scholarship, constructivist philosophy, and narrative theory into a pastoral theology of anger. Comprehensive and critically important, The Angry Christian will be of help to Christian caregivers and counselors, to clergy, and to all individuals looking to understand the experience of anger.
