About this episode
Bishop Shines discusses how offense can hinder spiritual growth and emphasizes the importance of maturity and refinement in handling difficult situations.
...Bishop Shines cites Mark 4:16-18 to explain how offense can move you out of position. God often uses uncomfortable environments to cultivate maturity, refinement, and strength in your life. A mature person can help others. Refinement teaches you how to handle situations. If you are not prepared, offense comes more easily and can lead to isolation. Will you allow offense to run from the problem, or prepare your heart to grow in God? Additional scriptures: Luke 17:1-5, Hebrews 9:27, Matthew 16:25, Romans 11:29, 1 Corinthians 12, Numbers 22:21-39, Genesis 4:1-16, Proverbs 18:1, Psalm 14:1, Proverbs 15:22 This 12-week series will examine aspects of offense that can impede spiritual growth and relationships.
