A question I get asked often at conferences is this:Is there help and hope for the angry mom?
Many moms have come to me in tears admitting they are really having a hard time with their anger, and they feel guilty because no matter how many times they determine to not let it happen again, it does.
As parents who are striving hard to raise our children for God, anger can be the biggest obstacle that stands in our way.
Anger damages relationships, and lessens our opportunity to influence the hearts of our children. To protect themselves from our anger, they put up walls around their hearts and shut us out.
WHY IS ANGER SO DAMAGING?
It is one of the biggest causes of rebellion in our children
It causes our children to harbor hurt that can turn to bitterness
It causes us to lose their hearts, and no longer have influence with them
Anger doesn’t address the heart issue and focuses more on changing behavior
Anger is catchy. If one or both parents have an angry spirit, there’s a good chance that the kids will too.
However, there IS help and hope for the angry mom!
The Bible tells us “Be ye angry and sin not,” so the anger itself isn’t the issue.
It’s how we respond to that anger.
By recognizing that we tend to sin in our anger, finding our triggers, pausing to calm ourselves, and then planning a better way than yelling or exploding, we CAN overcome anger God’s way!
If you find yourself yelling at your kids, and realize you have turned into an angry mom.
Or you know “angry mom” is not who you want to be, but don’t know where to begin to stop it.
Maybe you’re aware that anger damages relationships with your children, and often leads them to rebellion but you keep on anyways.
Or if you feel guilty about the Mom anger, but don’t know how to break the habits….

This is a wonderful course for moms! I loved how Kathie encouraged me and inspired me to do better. She gave lots of opportunities to get in the Word to see what God has to say about anger, and told us specific ways we can change. I am so thankful for this course. And that God used it in my life.
