The Cure for Unjust Anger (John Downame)

Description

As a physician of souls, John Downame begins this important book by carefully defining anger and distinguishing between righteous and unjust expressions of it. He then helps us consider the properties, causes, kinds, and effects of unjust anger. Finally, moving beyond diagnosis, he presents the cure of sinful anger by prescribing practical strategies for both preventing and overcoming unjust anger in its different forms. Downame writes as a skilled practitioner who has assembled a comprehensive moral and spiritual pharmacy for treating sin-sick souls.

Endorsement

“A good doctor can help treat bodily diseases, but, as our Lord reminds us, the eternal soul is far more important than the earthly body. John Downame is a surgeon of the soul, turning his attention in this case to anger. Like the best physicians, he diagnoses symptoms accurately and treats the disease at its source. You may not think yourself to be sick with anger, but you know someone who is. And even if you think you are immune, this book will point you to the source of your soul’s many sicknesses and to the glory of the One who provides an ultimate cure.” — Jonathan Master
