Product Description
Anger is a universal human experience. For many of us, it is the single greatest challenge in every area of our lives. We have been taught that anger itself is a sin and should be avoided at all costs. However, anger is also understood to be 'nature's way' of preparing man to respond in times of danger. How then do we go about bringing this volatile emotion under the Lordship of Jesus Christ? Gary Chapman gives us the perfect tool to answer this and many other questions in The Other Side of Love. In this book, he takes a fresh look at the origin and purpose of anger. Asserting that anger is rooted in the holy nature of God, he reverently explains that anger flows from God's holiness and love. Gary Chapman draws on his extensive counseling experience to instruct us how to positively process our anger. This will help us to create and further cultivate healthy relationships. Helpful study questions for group or personal use conclude each chapter. Don't let anger get the best of you. Victory begins with understanding. Now is the time to make this critical investment in your walk with Christ.

  Amazing Book October 21, 2007 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I actually led study on this book in a Sunday School class. It has enhanced my life and my relationships, and I have recommended it to many others, who have also led Bible Study classes with remarkable results. The weekly class I am in (couples, all parents) used this as a launching pad to other books by Gary Chapman. This book addresses a topic we ALL struggle with, no matter who we are. It is good to see some great Christian literature address that anger is something we should learn to live with and express appropriately, not be ashamed of.
  If you or someone you know gets angry... October 17, 2007 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
I highly recommend this book. When I first picked it up I was really skeptical and was expecting cheesy theories that aren't practical. Instead, this book is incredibly insightful, with down to earth examples that readers can easily relate to. The author is compassionate towards those who have difficulty with anger and does not belittle them like some other authors/counselors do. He provides a framework for understanding and dealing with anger and it's precursors and consequneces. Some of these ideas will be profound and revelatory for people, but this book was worded clearly and quick read.
  The other side of love Handling anger in a loving way January 7, 2007 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
This book was excellent. It helped me to evaluate my anger and provided useful tips to react differently and get better results. Anger is an issure that has popped up while parenting tirelessly on a daily basis. It helped to break down why I was experiencing anger. I love all of Gary Chapman's books and have found them very useful.
  Best I've read November 14, 2006 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
This is the best book I've read on anger management and teaching your children how to manage their anger. Gary Chapman's insight on why God created anger and what purpose it serves is very interesting. He provides summaries of each chapter, so you can review the main points without re-reading the entire book. This book gave me a new perspective.
  Very Good! July 30, 2006 3 out of 5 found this review helpful
If you have ever been angry, (which most people do get from time to time), then this book is a MUST READ! Don't leave home without it!
