SynopsisIt turns out giving up your "right" to be offended can be one of the most freeing, healthy, simplifying, relaxing, refreshing, stress-relieving, encouraging things you can do. It's a radical, provocative idea: We're not entitled to get offended or stay angry. The idea of our own "righteous anger" is a myth. It is the number one problem in our societies today and, as Dallas Willard says, Christians have not been taught out of it. But what if Christians were the most unoffendable people on the planet? In Unoffendable you will find concrete, practical ways to live life with less stress, including: Adjusting your expectations to fit human nature Replacing perpetual anger with refreshing humility and gratitude Embracing forgiveness and beginning to love others in unexpected ways In a humorous and conversational style, Unoffendable seeks to lift religious burdens from our backs and allow us to experience the joy of gratitude, perhaps for the first time, every single day of our lives--flourishing the way God intended., In Unoffendable readers will find something of immeasurable value---a concrete, practical way to live life with less stress. They'll adjust their expectations to fit human nature and replace perpetual anger with refreshing humility and gratitude., It turns out, giving up your "right" to be offended can be one of the most freeing, healthy, simplifying, relaxing, refreshing, stress-relieving, encouraging things you can do.

Unoffendable seeks to lift religious burdens from our backs and allow us to experience the joy of gratitude, perhaps for the first time, every single day of their lives., Not entitled to get angry? Really? It's a radical, provocative idea: We're not entitled to get offended or stay angry. The idea of our own "righteous anger" is a myth. It is the number one problem in our societies today and, as Dallas Willard says, Christians have not been taught out of it. As it turns out, giving up our "right" to be offended can be one of the most freeing, healthy, simplifying, relaxing, refreshing, stress-relieving, encouraging things we can do. In Unoffendable readers will find something of immeasurable value--a concrete, practical way to live life with less stress. They'll adjust their expectations to fit human nature and replace perpetual anger with refreshing humility and gratitude. The book offers a unique viewpoint, challenging the idea that Christians can ever harbor "righteous anger" or that there even is such a thing for believers. Few other books exist with such a radical, provocative proposal to consider. We have no right to anger. We are to get rid of it, period. Completely. And it is possible to choose to be "unoffendable." Through the author's winsome, humorous, and conversational style, this book doesn't add another thing to do on a stressed-out person's ever-growing list. Better, it actually seeks to lift religious burdens from readers' backs and allow them to experience the joy of gratitude, perhaps for the first time, every single day of their lives.

"Unoffendable"
I was introduced to Brant Hansen in reading a week's worth of his contributions to a Daily Inspirational book entitled "Men of Integrity." I have to honestly state that I am only on page #50 something. The book is a great read, as it addresses letting go of Anger, frustration, and negative thinking, both present and past. Brant makes so much sense, that is gently therapeutic, while making common sense. He supports his thoughts with scripture, but it doesn't clobber you over the head. Rather it sets you on a path of healing by learning to "Let go," and focus on common sense thoughts that are reassuring, practical, and uplifting. A real "Keeper," but also a book you will want to share. Such a wonderful, healing, Life changing book, that you will want to read it over and over, tag many remarkably soul rendering paragraphs, although from beginning to the very last page, it is a book inspired by Jesus. You will want to buy a copy to share, as you will not want to part with it because of its clarity, purposefulness, inspiration. The most healing and helpful book that I can EVER remember reading. And no, I am not related to Brant, nor have I even had the privilege of meeting him. "Unoffendable" is simply put, a life altering Blessing.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Neu

Food for Thought
The author, Brant Hansen, offers a Christian perspective on responding to offenses. His thoughts are practical and logical. He shares with honesty and a sense of humor. If you like Brant's blog, podcast, or radio program, then you will like his books. It is important to remember that Brant Hansen is writing as a layman. He gives his Christian perspective. He welcomes you to read, if you relate to his experiences. I would caution the reader to balance what you read with the Bible. I enjoyed the book, but I have read and listen to Bible teachers such as Andy Stanley, Chuck Swindoll, and Gary Wilkerson on this subject.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Neu

Unoffendable
Brant's own insight and writing style are as entertaining and thought provoking as his radio shows. In a world that demands complication of everything from religion to tax codes. Brant Hansen has a message that is refreshing and waaaay over due. Love it! God bless you, Brant! You have enriched many lives!Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Neu

Absolutely good book for the days we're living in. Too many people are offended by every little thing. This gives a biblical but practical way to just deal with it!Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht
