Communion Sunday, March 3rd, 1991. The message from Pastor Lee is titled “What Makes You Mad.” Pastor Lee opens his sermon by reminding us something important: it’s not really worth getting angry over something small—like a penny, as he illustrates. God designed us with the emotion of anger. The issue is how we use it. Pastor Lee reminds us that anger can be reflective and positive, or it can be purely reactionary and destructive. The difference matters enormously.He draws from the Gospel lesson for that Sunday, which describes Jesus in the temple in Jerusalem—overturning tables, driving out the money changers. It’s one of the few times we see Jesus visibly angry. And Pastor Lee uses this scene to explore what righteous anger looks like.
