What the Bible Says to Do When Someone Disrespects You

What does the Bible say to do when someone disrespects you? Not swallow it, and not explode. Scripture gives you a third option, and most Christians have never been taught it. In this video we walk through six biblical responses to disrespect, from how Jesus responded when He was struck at His trial, to Nehemiah's refusal to come down off the wall, to why David left Saul's presence but never took revenge.
