We have and will always face conflict. It’s just a natural part of life. How we handle conflict has a huge impact on our lives and relationships. Every conflict involves a calibration of two core values- the value of the relationship and the value of the issue. Our debates and decisions must take place in a community under the authority of Scripture, where we see the missional heart of God for all people. How can we use conflict as a bridge for the gospel of Christ? We must be sure to set our own agendas to the side, listen and obey the scriptures, and be willing to listen. Setting our hearts on the things above, we will allow the Holy Spirit to direct us in conflict and restoration.
