The Power of One - Offence Part 1

After hearing Matt Starrs share from Acts 6 last week, Pastor Shane felt stirred to discuss the same passage and explore an angle God was highlighting to him. In Acts 6:1–7, the early church faced its first internal challenge, a moment where offence could have divided what God had just begun to build.With humour, straight talk, and plenty of real-life application, Pastor Shane unpacks how offence works, why it’s “the anchor we drop in an effort to move forward”, and how pride fuels it while humility breaks its hold. This message is a call to guard our unity, in church, in the workplace, and in our own families by refusing to take the bait.📖 Scriptures referenced:Acts 6:1–7Acts 5 (context)Isaiah 8:141 Peter 2:7–8John 6:43–68Matthew 12:1–14Luke 7:36–47Matthew 15:22–28Mark 6:3–4John 5:39–40Luke 16:13–15Matthew 15:1–14
