We live in a culture that in many ways celebrates anger – it is the performative emotion in the pursuit of social justice and societal change; we often use it as a virtue signal of our zeal for holiness. This Sunday, Jesus will teach us another way, why anger is so dangerous, and the high calling to live without anger. For Jesus, the Kingdom was not simply a nice idea, but a very real place – life with God, as God intended, a place where reconciliation reigns over rage.
