Christianity never taught me how to be angry

Jesus is often enraged by injustice.

“She had every right to be angry, but I didn’t encourage her to express herself in a way that was public, disruptive, or demanding.” Reading Soraya Chemaly’s Rage Becomes Her: The Power of Women’s Anger, I realized that was me too. Raised in church, you don’t get angry. That’s not Christian. You don’t demand change. You don’t stand up for yourself, or others. If you get angry, you feel bad about it.
