Brant Hansen delves into the subject of offense with humility, candor, and, most importantly, a sense of humor. His humor grabbed my attention from the very first page.
Again, I'm one who enjoys first person accounts of stories and Brant did not disappoint. His transparency in this book is refreshing and enjoyable. At times, I felt as though I were peering through someone else's eyes and looking into my own life.
Offense has always been a big issue for me in my life. It's one that I still struggle with. 'Unoffendable' helped me to realize that, not only am I far from being alone in this 'unhealthy spirit', but there is hope and that being rid of the spirit of offense is a goal that is absolutely attainable.
Unoffendable has Scripture quoted throughout with a very healthy dose of funny. The humor made this read particularly enjoyable to me. It allowed me to look at my own life through eyes tilted upwards in a squint rather than through eyes darkened beneath a furrowed brow.
I also enjoyed that Brant dove straight into the subject of offense and didn't beat around the bush.
This was a very enjoyable read.
I hope to see more of Brant's books in the future.
