Thanks Rev. Kim Henderson for giving us a great picture of the virtue of diligence: rebuilding the walls of Jerusalem from the book of Nehemiah.

“Anger, when it is a holy emotion, has justice as its object and love as its roots. Both love and justice are focused on the good of others. Justice concerns giving to another what that other is due. Good anger is expressed in passionate efforts to make sure others get the respect they deserve, to bring about the end of oppression and tyranny, to give due punishment to those who cause injury and damage, to honour covenants and promises, to give equal treatment to the marginalized and to uphold the law. Motivated by good anger, we hunger and thirst for righteousness, an appetite that depends on justice for its object but on love for its right expression. Anger in these cases adds energy and passion to the execution of justice. The love that underlies it, however, keeps it in check, for love does not seek to destroy the other, but to set things right” - Rebecca Konyndyk DeYoung

What to Do About Angry Christianity
An excellent short read on Wrath and engaging our culture: "The culture is shifting rapidly, leaving many of us wary and uncertain, and anger and vitriol are the order of the day. Can Christians endure a radical renegotiation of the social contract and find ways to hold fast with what they know, articulate their views, and be heard? I believe we can, but angry activism has to be rejected, not just because it’s ineffective, but because it’s inconsistent with the message of the Gospel."
