What God has to say about your anger problem

The modern world is a vexing place, and more of us than ever before are struggling to keep a lid on our emotions. Patrick Regan OBE unpicks the tricky issue of responding well when we’re feeling under pressure

The number of people seeking help to manage their anger has doubled in the last five years.
