the Shlichim history 24:16

The actions of loved ones, church folks, and unbelievers can leave us feeling offended. We take offense and give offense. When offense lingers long enough, it leads to unforgiveness, bitterness, and a legion of negative emotions. In this plan, Temi Michael-O shares how to overcome church hurt and live unoffendable by examining the life and writings of Paul.

In the most unlikely way, God gave Paul an opportunity to witness to Christ. What he did for Paul, he’ll do with you. This 5-day plan continues a journey through the book of Acts, the Bible’s gripping sequel of Jesus at work in the life of his followers as he expands his kingdom to the ends of the earth. It’s a journey on what it means to be a Christian. It’s a story in which you have a role to play.

Explore the Book of Acts in a 6-day plan and gain a fresh perspective on persecution in the New Testament.
