Conquering Anger #3 Identifying the Root of Anger; Wounded Pride (Numbers 22)

Anger doesn’t just appear out of nowhere.

Most of the time…There’s something deeper underneath it.

In this episode, I will uncover one of the most overlooked causes of anger...wounded pride.

Using the story of Balaam in Numbers 22, we walk through how pride quietly works beneath the surface:

• It makes us feel disrespected
• It causes us to assume the worst
• It turns small irritations into real anger
• It makes everything personal
• It blinds us to the truth
• And it leads us to attack the wrong target

The truth is a lot of our anger isn’t caused by what actually happened…

it’s caused by how our pride feels about what happened.

If we don’t deal with the root, we’ll keep producing the same fruit.

“If you only deal with anger, you’ll never fix the problem… because anger is the fruit, pride is the root.”
