SNS 102: Of Christians and Anger
This past week, I have had cause to get angry at work. Now, the ins and outs of why are not crucial to our chat. For we all know what it’s like to get mad at work, right?
But the anger itself is what is of interest. Because it brought to mind an age-old question: Is getting angry a sin? Is it a sign of weak faith? This is what we are going to chat about in this episode.
Now, my name is Charles, Charles Yerkes, and this is the first episode of our new Coffee-side Chat series here on the Simple Not Shallow Podcast.
The Coffee-side Chat gets its name from… well, because there is a cup of coffee sitting beside me, this very instant, and we are currently chatting. Well, technically, I’m chatting; you’re listening. But let’s not get hung up on technicalities just yet. There will be time for that later.
But for now, grab yourself some coffee and let the chat begin.
