Welcome to this week's bonus interview on the prayers of rest podcast. I'm your host,

Ashrida Choochoo, and today we're talking to a new friend, new to me, Amber Leah, about feeling angry.

Amber was recommended by my good friend Wendy Speak, and she said, oh, if you're

talking about anger on this season of praying through hard emotions, you've just got to talk to

Amber. Amber is a best-selling author, a speaker, wife to her husband, guy, and mom to four

sons. Her newest book that is coming out is called

Food Triggers, but she has a whole series on triggers from parenting triggers to marriage

triggers to food triggers. And she shares in this interview about ways that God awakened her to her struggle with anger and how he has

been walking with her throughout this process. Before we jump into the interview, though,

just a quick note that our next live prayer call is November 12th at 1 p.m. Eastern time. That's coming up soon. I want you to put it on your

calendars. You can find out all the information about how to join us as a monthly prayer partner

and how to have access to these live prayer calls at prayersofrest.com backslash Patreon.

So like I said in this interview, Amber and I talk about how to handle these

feelings of anger, how to distinguish whether something is righteous anger or sinful anger,

how God met her in her PJs when she was just a young mom, as well as how she has now grown

to process anger in prayer and what God's done in her life throughout that process. But to start

things off, I asked Amber to share with us where God met her and what he revealed to her first.

The very first time she realized she was struggling with anger.

Well, I will speak to this topic of anger specifically because I think that there's still an

epidemic of people that are struggling with this emotion across the board. I think it's fairly rampant.

And that was true for me, but I didn't know that it was a widespread issue when I started

dealing with my own anger. It started for me, well, I'll just say I'd always wanted to be a mom.
