Anger (4 of 7)
Series: Emotions
Jeff Ginn
Mark 11:11-19
Here at Istrouma we're in a series of messages looking at the emotions that all of us experience. I have experienced a range of emotions this week. Among them has been great joy. It just so happens that I have a picture of our new grandson that was just born this week. His name is Forrest. Go Forest, go! There you are, son, right there. We're so proud of him, and thankful that he and Anna and Andrew and Lily are all well, so we've experienced great joy. And I would add to that another joy that came our way this week, speaking of missions, our son Zack has been on a mission trip up to Canada, and he came home safely last night; we picked him up from the New Orleans Airport. Emotions; there are a wide range of emotions that we can experience, and before us, our Lord Jesus experienced all of these emotions. And today, we're going to take up anger as an emotion. And I don't know about you, but to me, it seems like we're living in angry times. For example, you just go to a little league ball game nowadays. I've seen videos of the parents getting in fights with the referees, and you just think, man, where is this anger coming from? Do you watch The Jerry Springer Show? Don't ever watch The Jerry Springer Show! But you see these people just angry with one another, ready to fight. And road rage. In fact, we sent out one of our video teams this week and we caught this video of road rage. Watch this: [Humorous video of two drivers' anger escalating into road rage].
Angry, that's the kind of day that we're living in, and yes, that was not one of our video teams, but a funny video that I've enjoyed across the years, of how people can get so irate with one another. Well, does anger have a place in our lives? Is there a right kind of anger? We're going to find answers to those questions by looking in the Bible this morning, and so I'd like for you, if you have a copy of the Bible, to open it to Mark chapter 11. ...
