Why is it
easier to
express your
anger when
you’re
younger?

Anger Translator
Getting Mad at God
Psalm 44
Psalm 44
1 God, we have heard what
you did. Those who came
before us have told us what
you did in their days, in days
long ago.
Psalm 44
2 By your power you drove out the nations.You gave our people
homes in the land.You crushed the people who were there. And you
made our people do well.
Psalm 44
3 They didn’t win the land with their swords.They didn’t gain success
by their own power.Your powerful right hand and your mighty arm
gave them victory. You gave them success because you loved them.
Psalm 44
4 You are my King and my God. You give
victories to the people of Jacob. 5 With your
help we push back our enemies. By your
power we walk all over them. 6 I put no trust
in my bow. My sword doesn’t bring me
victory. 7 But you give us victory over our
enemies.You put them to shame. 8 All day
long we talk about how great God is. We
will praise your name forever.
Psalm 44
9 But now you have turned your
back on us and made us humble.
You don’t march out with our armies
anymore. 10 You made us turn and
run from our enemies.They have
taken what belongs to us.
February is Black History Month
Psalm 44
11 You handed us over to be
eaten up like sheep.You have
scattered us among the nations.
12 You sold your people for very
little.You didn’t gain anything
when you sold them.
Psalm 44
13 You have made us something that our neighbors laugh at.Those
who live around us make fun of us and tease us.14 The nations make
jokes about us.They shake their heads at us.
Psalm 44
15 All day long I have to live with
my shame. My face is covered
with it. 16 That’s because they
laugh at me and attack me with
their words.They want to get even
with me.
R A C I A L P R O F I L I N G
Psalm 44
17 All of this happened to us,
even though we had not forgotten
you. We had not broken the
covenant you made with us.18
Our hearts had not turned away from
you. Our feet had not wandered
from your path. 19 But you crushed
us and left us to the wild dogs.You
covered us over with deep darkness.
Psalm 44
20 We didn’t forget our God.We
didn’t spread out our hands in
prayer to a false god.21 If we had,
God would have discovered it. God
knows the secrets of our hearts.
22 But because of you, we face
death all day long.We are
considered as sheep to be killed.
Psalm 44
25 We are brought down to the dust. Our bodies lie flat on the ground.
26 Rise up and help us. Save us because of your faithful love.

“What a Friend We Have in Jesus”
What a friend we have in Jesus,

All our sins and griefs to bear!

What a privilege to carry

Everything to God in prayer!

Oh, what peace we often forfeit,

Oh, what needless pain we bear,

All because we do not carry

Everything to God in prayer!
Have we trials and temptations?

Is there trouble anywhere?

We should never be discouraged—
Take it to the Lord in prayer.

Can we find a friend so faithful,

Who will all our sorrows share?

Jesus knows our every weakness;

Take it to the Lord in prayer.
Are we weak and heavy-laden,

Cumbered with a load of care?

Precious Savior, still our refuge—
Take it to the Lord in prayer.

Do thy friends despise, forsake thee?

Take it to the Lord in prayer!

In His arms He’ll take and shield
thee,

Thou wilt find a solace there.
Blessed Savior, Thou hast promised

Thou wilt all our burdens bear;

May we ever, Lord, be bringing

All to Thee in earnest prayer.

Soon in glory bright, unclouded,

There will be no need for prayer—

Rapture, praise, and endless worship
Will be our sweet portion there.

Getting Mad at God

  • 1. HOW LIFE FEELS The Lenten Journey | Evergreen Baptist Church of Los Angeles | 2016
  • 2. Why is it easier to express your anger when you’re younger?
  • 3. Key & Peele’s “Luther, President Obama’s Anger Translator”
  • 4. We don’t need an Anger Translator
  • 5. Getting Mad at God Psalm 44
  • 6. Psalm 44 1 God, we have heard what you did. Those who came before us have told us what you did in their days, in days long ago.
  • 7. Psalm 44 2 By your power you drove out the nations.You gave our people homes in the land.You crushed the people who were there. And you made our people do well.
  • 8. Psalm 44 3 They didn’t win the land with their swords.They didn’t gain success by their own power.Your powerful right hand and your mighty arm gave them victory. You gave them success because you loved them.
  • 9. Psalm 44 4 You are my King and my God. You give victories to the people of Jacob. 5 With your help we push back our enemies. By your power we walk all over them. 6 I put no trust in my bow. My sword doesn’t bring me victory. 7 But you give us victory over our enemies.You put them to shame. 8 All day long we talk about how great God is. We will praise your name forever.
  • 10. Psalm 44 9 But now you have turned your back on us and made us humble. You don’t march out with our armies anymore. 10 You made us turn and run from our enemies.They have taken what belongs to us. February is Black History Month
  • 11. Psalm 44 11 You handed us over to be eaten up like sheep.You have scattered us among the nations. 12 You sold your people for very little.You didn’t gain anything when you sold them.
  • 12. Psalm 44 13 You have made us something that our neighbors laugh at.Those who live around us make fun of us and tease us.14 The nations make jokes about us.They shake their heads at us.
  • 13. Psalm 44 15 All day long I have to live with my shame. My face is covered with it. 16 That’s because they laugh at me and attack me with their words.They want to get even with me. R A C I A L P R O F I L I N G
  • 14. Psalm 44 17 All of this happened to us, even though we had not forgotten you. We had not broken the covenant you made with us.18 Our hearts had not turned away from you. Our feet had not wandered from your path. 19 But you crushed us and left us to the wild dogs.You covered us over with deep darkness.
  • 15. Psalm 44 20 We didn’t forget our God.We didn’t spread out our hands in prayer to a false god.21 If we had, God would have discovered it. God knows the secrets of our hearts. 22 But because of you, we face death all day long.We are considered as sheep to be killed.
  • 16. Psalm 44 25 We are brought down to the dust. Our bodies lie flat on the ground. 26 Rise up and help us. Save us because of your faithful love. Charleston Emanuel AME Church Shooting Victims 17 June 2015 Cynthia Hurd Rev. Clementa Pinckney Rev. Sharonda Singleton Rev. Daniel Simmons, Sr. Rev.

  • 18. “What a Friend We Have in Jesus”
  • 19. What a friend we have in Jesus, All our sins and griefs to bear! What a privilege to carry Everything to God in prayer! Oh, what peace we often forfeit, Oh, what needless pain we bear, All because we do not carry Everything to God in prayer! Have we trials and temptations? Is there trouble anywhere? We should never be discouraged— Take it to the Lord in prayer. Can we find a friend so faithful, Who will all our sorrows share? Jesus knows our every weakness; Take it to the Lord in prayer.
  • 20. Are we weak and heavy-laden, Cumbered with a load of care? Precious Savior, still our refuge— Take it to the Lord in prayer. Do thy friends despise, forsake thee? Take it to the Lord in prayer! In His arms He’ll take and shield thee, Thou wilt find a solace there. Blessed Savior, Thou hast promised Thou wilt all our burdens bear; May we ever, Lord, be bringing All to Thee in earnest prayer. Soon in glory bright, unclouded, There will be no need for prayer— Rapture, praise, and endless worship Will be our sweet portion there.
