 - How do you relate to people that are different than you?

- Are there times you turn off your “ministry radar”? What are some of those times or scenarios when you are not looking to serve others?

- How do you share your faith in conversation?

- Think of a time when someone shared the truth in love to you.

·         Anger is a normal human emotion.

·         God given means of protecting ourselves, for setting boundaries.

·         Jesus had an emotional life (He cleared out the temple).

·         Anger is a misunderstood emotion. We don’t do anger well in the church. Most of us have not seen anger done well and have come to associate anger with destruction.

Two Questions

·         We don’t get our way
·         We are frustrated
·        
We have been hurt
·        
We are angry at someone else
