Offense is something we all face, but how do we deal with it without letting it take root in our hearts? In this episode, I begin reading The Bait of Satan by John Bevere and walk through what offense really means, why it’s called a “trap,” and how God’s Word teaches us to respond with forgiveness and grace. Together we’ll look at key scriptures like Luke 17:1, Proverbs 19:11, Ephesians 4:31–32, and Matthew 18:7 to understand how to live free from bitterness and walk in God’s love.

Reflection Questions:

Have you ever struggled with holding onto offense?

How do you usually deal with people who hurt you?

Do you think offense can block your spiritual growth?
