Resolving Everyday Conflict

Conflict is common. It’s common to all people and it’s common to all of life. It’s usually experienced in our ordinary interactions with an overbearing boss, a challenging colleague, a difficult neighbor, a moody teenager, a complaining spouse, etc. Conflict is common but applying the gospel to our conflicts is not. Most of us hate conflict. So we either respond with dysfunctional conflict avoidance or dysfunctional anger. Either way bitterness and callousness set in. Though we want to deal with conflict in a more God-honoring, people-loving way we often do not know how to.

Resolving Everyday Conflict is a nine-week study, based on the book by Peacemaker Ministries, that seeks to unpack key biblical principles for dealing with conflict resolution and cultivating healthier relationships. It is a Christ-centered study that presents powerful and practical answers to everyday problems. Whether you’re struggling in a relationship at home, at work, at school, or know someone who is, this study offers help for living out the gospel in our relationships.

Workbooks are available for this study (from our Wednesday night service – 7:00pm each week). If you would like to purchase a copy, please email the church office. Cost per book: $5. I addition, you can also pick up the book copy of the original material from Peacemaker Ministries: Resolving Everyday Conflict here.

Joshua

Light for Life: Exploring God-breathed Glory

Joshua is the first book of the former prophets, proclaiming the works of God through the history of the nation Israel. Joshua preaches history. It presses God upon its readers, revealing Him as holy, righteous, faithful, wrathful, and just. The book records the historical details that demonstrate God’s faithfulness to deliver according to His promises. While the historic conquest of the land of Canaan occupies most of the narrative, another resounding theme is the importance of obedience to the sacred Scriptures. A key principle that we can glean from this book is clear: true victory comes through faith in God and obedience to His Word, rather than through our own wisdom and strength.
