The premise of this book is that learning to let go of anger8212;and ultimately forgiving the offender8212;will transform the foundation of every kind of relationship we have. Stanley definesnbsp;anger asnbsp;"a strong feeling of intense displeasure, hostility, or indignation as a result of a real or an imagined threat or insult, frustration, or injustice toward yourself or towards someone whorsquo;s very important to you." Building on this defintion, Stanley... 1. Helps readers identify the signs of anger, so they can identify anger in themselves.nbsp;nbsp; 2. Revealsnbsp;the far-reaching consequences of anger, which encompass the spiritual, emotional, and physical.nbsp; 3. Teaches readersnbsp;how to handle anger throughnbsp;thirteen concretenbsp;steps. 4. Walks readers through the steps to true forgiveness and the healing power it brings. With compassion and a wealth of biblical understanding, Stanley explains that the measure of a person is "the size of thing that makes them angry." He goes on to distinguish between healthy and harmful anger and reminds us that "righteous indignation" is a divine emotion. However, he skillfully explains that misguided anger eats away at ourselves, our relationships with others, and our relationship with God.nbsp;By helping readersnbsp;look honestly at the source of their anger, henbsp;gently leads them tonbsp;the ability to truly forgive and find the peace they seek.nbsp;
