Have you ever been so angry with someone that you kept replaying the argument in your head, thinking about what you should have said—or wishing they would get what they deserved? Most of us know we shouldn't physically harm another person. But what if the Sixth Commandment, “You shall not murder,” asks us to look deeper? This Sunday, as we continue our Rise Above It series on the Ten Commandments. We’ll explore how anger, resentment, contempt, and the desire for revenge can hurt others and damage our own spiritual lives. We’ll also consider the difference between destructive anger and the kind of passion that motivates us to protect others and stand up for what is right called "zeal". The good news is that we don’t have to let anger control us. With God’s help, we can learn to pause, look honestly at what’s happening inside us, and choose a response that builds up others rather than tears them down. Keeping this commandment means not only refusing to take or harm another's life, but learning to be a life giving person. Join us Sunday at 10:30 a.m. in person or on our livestream as we discover how to rise above anger and become people who encourage, support, and bring out the good in others.
