“Like relentless waves, the news keeps crashing: Ahmaud Arbery. Breonna Taylor. George Floyd. Each one, an image-bearer of God. Each one, beautifully woven by their Maker and bestowed with brown skin. Each one, senselessly killed. These three people, three deaths, three situations point to a larger issue with broad implications. It is godly to get angry. I’ll say it again: It is godly to get angry.”

This is something many people in ministry struggle with, including Mike and Aaron. The two get vulnerable about their own struggles with this problem and then discuss some ways that Jesus has led them to push past it and overcome it. We hope that this discussion is encouraging to you”
