Good and Angry: Redeeming Anger, Irritation, Complaining, and Bitterness (David Powlison)
$18.95Good and Angry, a groundbreaking book from David Powlison, shows readers how anger is more than a problem to solve. Anger is our complex human response to what we perceive as wrong in a complex world, thus we must learn how to fruitfully and honestly deal with it.
Powlison undertakes an in-depth exploration of the roots of anger, moral judgment, and righteous response by looking in a surprising place: God’s own anger.
Good and Angry examines God’s desire for justice and his anger, which doesn’t devolve into manipulation. Rather, God’s anger is good and redemptive, and it causes him to step into our world to make wrongs right, sending his own Son to die so we can be reconciled.
In this book full of practical and biblical help, Powlison sets readers on a path toward a faithful and fruitful expression of anger, in which we return good for evil and redeem wrongs. Powlison investigates how God is our model for change and our power for change.
Good and Angry helps people who struggle with irritation, complaining, or bitterness explore how to respond constructively when life goes wrong. You, your family, and your friends will all be glad that you read this book.

Dealing with Rejection: How to Respond to Deep Hurt
$5.62You feel betrayed. Someone close to you has hurt you deeply. You want to move past the pain and your obsession with what happened, but how? The usual strategies–trying to get even, trying to forget–just aren’t working for you. Perhaps it’s time for a different approach.
Jack Miller unpacks the different ways that people respond to betrayal and rejection and offers a new way to respond–forgiveness rooted in the gospel of Jesus Christ. Forgiveness doesn’t mean “forgetting” or acting as if nothing happened, but it does mean being free from hurt and able to be like Jesus and return good for evil.

Freedom From Resentment: Stopping Hurts from Turning Bitter
$5.62Everyone experiences hurt in relationships, but most of the time we are able to forgive and forget. But sometimes we experience a major hurt that lingers in our minds and leads to bitterness. We feel trapped by the resulting hostility, ongoing broken relationships, and inability to move on. Can you escape the sorrow and soul impoverishment that bitterness brings?
Robert Jones explains how a relationship with Jesus, a man of sorrows and familiar with suffering, can free you from bitterness. Then he outlines practical ways to live out the gospel in difficult relationships. Healing and freedom is possible, even for long-lasting hurts.

Bitterness: The Root that Pollutes (Lou Priolo)
$6.29When people treat you wrongly, insult you, or are outright sinful to you, how do you react? Are you satisfied to hold grudges against those who wrong you, as long as they don’t lead to action? Unfortunately, your decision to harbor bitterness is just as much of a sin as the one originally committed against you, and your reaction to others’ sin is a spiritual battle you are called on to win.
Lou Priolo focuses on that battle in this vital booklet that seeks to weed out the problem of bitterness. By offering a biblical definition and identifying its outward signs, the author equips you to recognize bitterness in your own life, and he lays out a scriptural plan to ensure victory by repaying others’ evil with good. You will find grudges losing their grip as you focus instead on how to show love.

Respectable Sins: Confronting the Sins We Tolerate (Jerry Bridges)
$12.99As Christians, we believe that all sins are considered equal in God’s eyes. Yet while evangelicals continue to decry the ones we consider ‘Big Ones’ – abortion, adultery, murder – we often overlook more deceptive sins. More personal sins. The ones we commit.
It seems we have created a sliding scale where gossip, jealousy, and selfishness comfortably thrive. In short, some sins have simply become acceptable.
Author Jerry Bridges believes that just as culture has lost the concept of sin, the church faces the same danger. He writes not from a sense of achievement, but from the trenches of his own personal battles. Drawing from scriptural truth, he sheds light on subtle behaviors that can derail our spiritual growth, and he encourages us on a path to victory by re-applying the gospel freshly to our lives.
