CAUTION: When Outrage Takes the Throne of the Heart

Jan 25, 2026    Dr. S.D. Tootle III

When outrage becomes more than a momentary response and settles into a ruling posture of the heart, it quietly reshapes our faith, our witness, and our obedience. In James 1:19–20, we are reminded that the anger of man, even when popular or provoked, does not produce the righteousness of God. This study calls believers to examine what is governing their inner life and to lay down outrage in order to be ruled again by Christ. A heart anchored in Scripture, not agitation, is where true spiritual maturity is formed.
