Do we have a right to be offended? Should we be outraged when God is mocked?

In today’s episode, Pastor Derek and Pastor Jackie talk through how Christians should respond to sin being paraded around publicly (such as the opening ceremony of the Paris Olympics). We look at how Jesus responded to personal attacks and how God deals with mockery to get a biblical framework for how we ought to respond when we've been wronged or witnessed our belief in God being mocked or criticized.
