When we look at the word offense, by definition it's the act of displeasing someone, an annoyance or resentment brought about by a perceived insult. In order to move beyond offense, it requires that we have a different mindset and perspective so that we can then see the opportunity. Counterintuitive to what society tells us, it starts by not focusing on the why but on the how. Script. Ref. Luke 9:22-24 Matt 16:21-25
