  • What causes YOU to lose your cool? The roots of our anger are deep and varied, but Shawn Boonstra suggests it's usually less about cosmic justice and more about personal injury. So, how to name and tame this dragon of rage? A centuries-old Christian practice may be the key.

    About Authentic:
    Host Shawn Boonstra makes it easy to understand how philosophy and biblical principles can help you live an authentic life in the 21st century.
    We talk about real existential questions-stuff that everybody wonders about: the meaning of life, purposeful living, the nature of human existence, the thoughts of great philosophers and how those have impacted our culture and how we live-the nature of love, relationships, emotions, self-awareness . . . But most of all, we explore what it means to live an authentic human existence.
    New episodes on Saturdays. Watch on RUclips and a growing list of North American TV networks and stations.

    The timing of this message is perfect. As Christ Jesus my Lord and savior is perfect. Thank you for this ministry which is so wonderful with the articulate and cerebral discussions which is so refreshing.

    Thank you for talking about this very important topic of anger. Some people walk around angry all the time and do not know it. They do not realize how their anger hurts other people.

      Mary, I'm one of those people, and I know I have ruined many good relationships and hurt so many people, and I am ashamed of who I have become. I've even tried suicide because my guilt is consuming me. But God is working on me and I am trying my best to surrender to Him and make amends with those I've wounded and hurt...

      ​​@@truebeliever3949 My experience shows me it's the right wing evangelicals that speak and threaten to do the most damaging things. We should all take to heart what Mrs White says about politics in chapter 57 of Counsels for the Church...
      And we would do well to remember that Jesus did not come here to establish an earthly government...

    In the early 1900s, my Dad was born into the "Over The Rhine" German community in Cincinnati, Ohio. So many of the people in that community were very angry people.😥 I've often said that they weren't happy unless they were arguing with someone.... Because of his heritage, my Dad struggled with terrible, inner anger issues in his life. When we would visit Dad's parents, I can still remember Dad and my Grandfather getting into arguments. My Grandmother would be crying, and my Mom would be insisting that it was time to leave, and that Dad needed to go to our car with Mom and me. I can still remember my Grandfather telling my Dad that in our lives, "You gotta get them before they get you!" (Thankfully, my Dad didn't take that advice.) But I wish so much that my Dad could have heard this Sermon! How true are the words which the Holy Spirit gave to Pastor Boonstra for this Sermon!!! May God continue to richly bless him, his family, and his ministry, is my prayer. 🙏❤️

    There is a lot less emotional weight to deal with when carrying only today’s baggage. It is easier to handle one day’s bit of information rather than all my yesterdays.
    Thanks for the reminder and encouragement to be present in the moment I am living in.

    Thanks for the message! I think we should protect ourselves against too much negative content in social media. And we should put ourselves in other's shoes more often, even when we differ greatly in our point of view. When solving conflicts, we should try to focus in reaching an agreement, rather than always wanting to be right. At least, this is the way I'm trying to deal with anger myself.

    I have sought help for my anger, but even among professionals there seems to be a priority toward apathy and just getting through the day. I believe that even therapists need therapy. So for now I'm just stuck with that a solution and don't know why I'm not able to focus very well when I open my Bible. I wish I was a better man, but I just don't seem to have the willingness to try anymore.

      @@frankstrack7980 Does the person do the same thing if you are with your wife? If so, is there anything you could say that would result in a different outcome? Is mental incapacity a contributing factor? Too many possibilities for an applicable response/solution. Maintaining that relationship and ending it both come with a price. Which has the higher cost, is the relationship worth it? Prayer first always and remember that he said sometimes there are people you need to eliminate from your life.
