In Week 3 of our Untangle series, we dive into one of the hardest emotions to face: hate. We often think of hate as just “anger turned up,” but it’s more complex—and more dangerous. Hate lingers, dehumanizes, and can twist even our deepest values against us. Scripture shows us that while God calls us to hate injustice, dishonesty, empty religion, and evil, He never calls us to hate people. Instead, Jesus commands us to love even our enemies. In this message, we explore how to recognize when dislike, anger, contempt, or disgust are sliding toward hate, and how to redirect those feelings toward God’s purposes—choosing empathy, remembering the image of God in others, and holding tightly to what is good.
