Brent is a master surgeon cutting us with the Word of God with his “awe shucks” mid-western humor. I loved it. Great theology.

Brant Hansen has taught me with this book how deadly it is to stay angry and offended all the time. Use to I would let my offenses eat at me, stewing how whoever offended me was wrong and I WAS RIGHT. Now, when I feel offended about something, and I can feel the offense taking a stronghold, I offer it up to God, asking him to take control of it, and I let go of my offense, those thoughts no longer mine. Instantly I feel a wave of peace wash over me. Bc the author is right: Jesus forgave me so I am to forgive others. However it’s now become for me to WANT to forgive instead of holding onto the offense.

Been battling with bitterness and resentment for the last few years. Experienced what seemed like at the time, endless church hurt along with strife among leaders in my previous church. This book was a MAJOR eye opener for me as I never realized just how it wasn’t all them to blame, it was me and my constant choosing to be offended at things. Even within the last week I’ve noticed how not much bothers me anymore when I go out in public or when I interact with people. I’ve finally realized I can’t control people, I can only control me and my responses..

Life changing ❤️

Eyeopening and refreshingly down to earth. Sharing the truth of how we should live our lives if we claim to be Jesus followers. Thank you Brant.

Who knew I could choose not to be offended...

This is such a challenging and counter-cultural concept. Each page is filled with logic and facts to back it up, but more importantly Brant conveys the point with grace and humility. This is a legitimate instruction manual that is absolutely a joy to read!

Loved this book. it is helping me to release my self doubt self guilt and living my life as full as possible in Christ

Brant, thanks for showing the world it's ok to be quirky, introverted, and different. This book really helped me see things just a little bit more like Jesus does.

This is a must read if you live in this crazy world. Christian or not, YOU need to read this book.
