“Avoid name-calling and insults, as they lead to intensified arguing. If you’re feeling angry, directly state, “I feel angry.” This is concise and clear. It avoids manifesting your anger in the form of insults, names, or sarcasm. If you’re so angry or frustrated that you become overwhelmed, step away for a moment. Take responsibility for seeking your partner out to continue the conversation once you’ve calmed down.”

“One would think Christians would be exempt from worry. But we are not. We have been taught that the Christian life is a life of peace, and when we don’t have peace, we assume the problem lies within us. Not only do we feel anxious, but we also feel guilty about our anxiety! The result is a downward spiral of worry, guilt, worry, guilt. It’s enough to cause a person to get anxious.”
