G4: Go and Be Reconciled
Because relationships matter more, resolving conflict aims at relational restoration through reconciliation. Since there is no true reconciliation without forgiveness, this session focuses on forgiveness as the final key. This message is about a subject that is ultimately impossible with man. Forgiveness is fundamentally Christian. It is not merely done better or made easier with Christ; it cannot exist apart from Christ. We can truly forgive only because we are truly forgiven. In this, we are to be examples of Christ to the ones we love and the watching world. This involves extending ourselves to remedy the relational destruction of sin through forgiveness. Relational reconciliation captures the heart of the gospel—it makes much of Christ.
