Blinded by Rage: How Anger Keeps Us from Seeing God

Item No. 9781968863050

by Fr. Theodore Pulcini and Oswin Craton

Modern society encourages us to embrace the power of anger. Indeed, the world sees the passion of anger as a virtue that can be used to help right wrongs. But what do Scripture and the Fathers say about it? Does this passion have a place in our walk with Christ? Is expressing outrage at societal ills a true reflection of God's attitude toward these evils, or does it instead blind us to His presence? Father Theodore Pulcini, a frequent lecturer on the subject of anger, and Oswin Craton, join together to examine how anger affects our journey toward theosis.
