Unoffendable - Don't Take The Bait!
Manage episode 434265816 series 3354046
We have all been OFFENDED by someone or something. This message uses common mousetraps and bug zappers as metaphors to illustrate how easy it is to fall into life’s various "traps," such as consumerism, sweets, gossip, and digital distractions. Pastor Rusty recounts personal experiences, leading to a deeper discussion about the ultimate trap laid by the enemy: offense. Rusty urges listeners not to take the bait of offense, which can lead to bitterness and distraction from what truly matters. He emphasizes the importance of letting go of offenses and avoiding being the cause of others' stumbling, while encouraging a balanced approach to expressing and dealing with issues. The message ultimately calls for living in grace, not letting offenses take root, and moving forward with wisdom and patience.

I want to introduce Mission15 — a worldwide movement dedicated to delivering one billion gospel invitations by the end of 2030 through social media platforms, radio, television, and print. You can be a part of this global mission in three simple ways:
ㅤ
Pray15: Dedicate 15 minutes to pray for those who haven’t heard about Jesus. Use our video prayer guide, your Bible, or even a list on your fridge. Whether it’s daily, weekly, or monthly—just pray.
ㅤ
Give15: Contribute $15, whether it’s a one-time donation, weekly, or monthly, to support media efforts that share the gospel globally.
ㅤ
Share15: Invite 15 people to join you. They can download the video prayer guide, pray for 15 minutes, give $15, and then invite 15 more friends.
ㅤ
It’s that simple!
