Overcoming Anger | A Catholic Response to the Charlie Kirk Assassination

In this special episode of the Catholic Coaching Podcast, Matt and Erin take on the emotion dominating hearts after the assassination of Charlie Kirk: anger. Is it wrong to feel angry? How do you know if your anger is righteous, vicious, or deficient? Drawing on Aquinas, pastoral wisdom, and lived experience, this episode helps you discern anger as a morally neutral emotion that can lead either to sin or to zeal.

What we cover
•Anger in light of Charlie Kirk’s death: is it appropriate?
•Aquinas on anger: sorrow + hope + perceived injustice
•Deficient anger vs. excessive anger vs. righteous anger
•Real-life examples (parenting, media, leadership, forgiveness)
•A 6-step process to move from vicious anger to zeal
•Why prayer, reflection, and forgiveness are essential

By the end, you’ll have tools to name your anger, check its proportion, pause before reacting, and channel it toward justice and restoration.
