Product Description
What do Mothers Against Drunk Driving, the abolition of slavery, and the civil rights movement have in common? They all began because of one universal human emotion: anger. When motivated by injustice and guided by love, anger is a catalyst for good. But how can we make our anger a good thing? Dr. Gary Chapman, best-selling author of The Five Love Languages, brings us The Other Side of Love to teach us the answers in a very practical way. The Other Side of Love is your resource for learning how to handle your anger, know if your anger is definitive or distorted, avoid imploding, recognize and process long-term anger, forgive, deal with anger toward your spouse, teach your children to deal with angry feelings, handle anger with God, handle anger with yourself, and respond to an angry person. This book can revolutionize your relationships if you practice its ideas for handling life's second greatest force.

Amazing Book

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.

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.

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.

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.
