What do you do when you feel like you’ve blown it spiritually? When guilt won’t let go and you’re tempted to prove yourself instead of trusting grace?

In this episode, we unpack simmering anger — the quiet, justified, under-the-surface anger that shows up as sarcasm, silence, withdrawal, cold tones, apathy, and emotional distance. The kind of anger that often does more damage than explosive outbursts.

Not every wrong action from a child is rebellion. Sometimes it’s simple immaturity, other times it’s outright defiance.
