Ever noticed how easily we become offended when God doesn't operate according to our expectations? This episode tackles a profound spiritual truth that's been weighing heavily on my heart: if you don't understand what God is doing or His purpose, you'll inevitably be offended at His process or method.

Drawing from Hebrews 1, we explore how God speaks "in various times and various ways" – He's not cookie-cutter in His approach. There are Biblical examples where this principle plays out dramatically: John the Baptist confused the religious leaders because they couldn't grasp his purpose. Jesus constantly faced opposition from those who didn't understand His mission. Even His closest followers – Judas selling Him out after the expensive perfume incident and Peter being called "Satan" moments after divine revelation – demonstrate how missing God's purpose leads to taking offense at His methods.

I share our personal wilderness experience, when leaving the institutional church triggered judgment from those who couldn't see what God was doing. Yet that same process, misunderstood by many, was precisely what God used to expose hidden issues and develop authentic relationship with Him. The solution to avoiding unnecessary offense is refreshingly simple: ask God what He's doing. During prayer, with pen and paper ready, directly inquire about His purposes. Write down what you hear, test it against Scripture, and watch how it unfolds – even when it doesn't match your expectations.
