202 Thrive Deeper: Proverbs - Anger


Listen Later

The Book of Proverbs offers profound insights into the nature of anger and how we should manage it. Proverbs emphasizes the value of patience and self-control, highlighting that a person who is slow to anger is wiser and more powerful than one who is quick-tempered

The teachings also stress the importance of responding gently to defuse anger. This underscores the power of calm and measured responses in preventing conflicts.
Moreover, Proverbs warns against the folly of uncontrolled anger. This highlights that wisdom lies in maintaining composure and not letting anger dictate our actions.
Overall, Proverbs teaches that managing anger with patience, gentleness, and self-control leads to wisdom and peace, while unchecked anger leads to folly and discord. It’s not that we should never get angry, it’s more about what we ‘do’ with that anger.
