Refuse To Be Offended
Individual TopicsSteve Gregg
In "Refuse To Be Offended," Steve Gregg emphasizes the importance of refusing offense to maintain healthy relationships between people. He argues that refusing offense requires wisdom, discretion, and the fruit of the spirit, including love. Gregg believes that forgiveness and restoration are crucial aspects of relationships, but trust should only be restored if repentance is present. He encourages Christians to maintain a low view of themselves and a high view of God's sovereignty by adopting an attitude of refusing offense.
