Taming the Meanie Monster
If you are a parent, you have been there. Children do things that test the limits of those of us who admire rationality and common sense. Our innate default in such moments is to respond badly. We all struggle with anger to some extent. It is only through learning what God has to say on the subject of anger, and through appropriating the power of the Holy Spirit, that we can escape the tyranny of our own tendencies and addictions.
If you struggle with habitual anger, there are several things you need to know.
- You are not alone. Everyone struggles with this issue to some extent.
- It is not okay. Left unchecked it will damage important relationships.
- There is hope. There is freedom found in God’s Word to help you overcome this habitual sin.
We hope that you will join us on a mission to escape the trap of angry and stressed-out parenting. In this book, we will share with you a biblical view of anger, strategies for breaking life-long habits, and ways that you can build up and encourage your child rather than tear him or her down.

Customer Reviews
My physical book is marked up, dog-eared and highlighted and if I could mark up the audiobook, I would. I have thoroughly enjoyed both the physical book and the audiobook. Listening to the audiobook has been so helpful when I needed to learn from this book again but couldn’t take the time to read it again. This book is no-doubt convicting, but in a grace-filled way. Not once did I feel shame from the authors’ tone or words about having or displaying anger. Israel and Brook Wayne share their own stories about anger which makes the book relatable and encouraging. They discuss causes of anger, triggers for anger, but also ways to overcome it and how to be more affirming. And they do all of this through a Biblical lens.
This book has been a vital book in my parenting journey, and I will keep it nearby and accessible to read again and again. I highly recommend this book to all parents who struggle with anger in any way. This is a must-have in the Christian parent’s home.
The authors are experienced parents and speakers, focusing on the heart issues behind parental outbursts. They combine personal stories (which I loved), scriptural insights, and practical strategies to encourage parents to pursue patience and godly character in their parenting.
This book has a Biblical foundation. The authors root their advice in scripture. It is relatable and honest. The Waynes share their own struggles with anger which is an encouragement for anyone reading that you are not alone. I liked the practical tips such as identifying anger triggers, developing new habits, and practicing repentance and forgiveness.
The overall focus is on overcoming anger and stress by seeking God’s help and allowing Him to transform you into the parent you aspire to be.
The audiobook is narrated by Will Stauff who I enjoy listening to. He has a very comfortable and engaging voice. I like the pace he uses to read through the book.
