In this message pastor Lundmark examines three areas mention in this section. The Calling The Leaven and The Offense.

Dealing With Offenses
Most offenses are caused by dealing with unrealized expectations. Those who are not close to us we find no difficulty forgiving, but those closest to our hearts have the greatest ability to spark an offense in our hearts.

Acts 13:1-12 - Fighting Oversensitivity
Paul and Barnabas went out from the church in Antioch to spread the Gospel to other cities. They came to the island of Cyprus, where the work was opposed by a false prophet. Paul got right in the false prophet’s face, told him that he was full of lies and evil, and cured him with blindness. As we share the truth about Jesus we should not be oversensitive to offending people but we should have both compassion for the lost and the courage and boldness to call out sin and lies when we see them.
