Matthew 13:57-58

And they took offense at Him (refusing to believe in Him). But Jesus said to them, “A prophet is not without honor except in his hometown and in his own household.”  And He did not do many miracles there (in Nazareth) because of their unbelief.

Our best defense against being offended is choosing no matter what not to be offended.  When a person is offended, their blessing gets blocked, making it harder to receive from Jesus.  The offense is more about our feelings than our beliefs!  Jesus couldn’t heal and do any great miracles because of their unbelief.
