The Offense Trap: Why We Hold Onto the Hurt (Part 1)
from Go With God · host Kaley Hollingsworth
Have you ever felt stalled in your faith because you’re holding onto a deep hurt? This is the topic I've been avoiding for a while: offense. The reality is that we are an offended people. We talk about why we hold onto the past, and explore the reasons why we want to avenge ourselves.Learn how resentment and bitterness become the enemy's most effective tool—a stumbling block and a trap for Jesus followers. Drawing from a personal journal entry and scriptures like Ephesians 4:26-27 and Romans 12:17-19, we see how holding onto anger creates a door for the devil to enter, ultimately hindering your walk with God. This episode challenges the notion that being wronged gives you the right to take revenge and shows you the high cost of the offense trap. Stop holding onto offense because it’s holding you back.Mentioned in the Episode:Links + more!Connect with Kaley:www.kaleyhollingsworth.comIG: @kaley_hollingsworthYT: www.youtube.com/@kaleyhollingsworth
