Janet Mathias: I was expecting this book to be in the form of modern pop psychology masquerading as "Christian" teaching on sanctfication.
However, my expectations have been greatly exceeded, and Robert D. Jones expounds scriptures relating to anger both expertly and also pastorally.
I have only read the opening chapters so far, but what I have read thus far has been very theologically solid, dispelling many contemporary mistaken motions of the origin and nature of anger, and shines the lamp of the Word upon these issues.
I think every Christian would benefit from reading this work to gain further insight, by the illumination of the Holy Spirit at work within them, the baseness of their own heart, and that genuine repentance and lasting deliverence from anger comes by Christ alone.

William D. Curnutt: Robert Jones gives us a good in depth look at Anger and why it is such a problem for people today. Anger doesn't just cause us to bring disrespect to the Name of God, but it destroys are relationships with those around us as well as our relationship with the Lord.
Jones starts off with a good Biblical Look at the issue of Anger. The scope of scripture he uses is a good tool for anyone who experiences anger or is trying to help a fellow Christian who is dealing with anger. I found myself putting each of the scriptures he was referencing into my scripture memory app on my iPad so that I could start to memorize these and put them in my heart to help me deal with anger when it arises in my life.
Jones then goes on to talk about the two main ways people deal with anger, Venting and Stuffing. We either express our anger in tantrums of venting where we loose our tongue and let the verbal attack spew forth towards anyone that is around us. The words are hurtful and never healing. Afterwards we may feel better because we have released some steam, but those around us are now struggling with anger at being the receivers of our venting.
The other style is that of...

Matt Mitchell: Where did my anger come from?
I didn't know I was an angry man until the autumn when my 2-year-old decided to stop sleeping at night and my wife contracted mononucleosis and had to sleep a lot. At the time, I thought my surprising rages came from groggy days and sleepless nights.
But my friend Bob Jones contends that my sinful anger came from the residue of corruption in my new but still imperfect heart. In Uprooting Anger: Biblical Help For a Common Problem , Jones insightfully teaches what the Bible says about anger's true cause and gospel cure.
The greatest strength of this incisive little book is the careful, nuanced thought the author has dedicated to the biblical data, combined with field-tested practical application. Jones was a pastor for 18 years, and it shows. His extensive counseling experience provides a wealth of true-to-life illustrations.
Uprooting Anger covers a lot of ground. Not only does Jones provide a biblical definition of anger, a diagnostic for gauging the righteousness of anger and a detailed roadmap to change, but he also delves into specific problems with anger--such as anger against God and anger directed at yourself.
