Happy
New Year! I am excited about what 2007 will bring our direction in life
and ministry. I trust Christmas was a clear spiritual and personal reminder of the
gift of God's Son Jesus Christ!
CONFLICT
- the universal human experience. This Sunday I begin a four week series
on resolving personal conflict. We all experience conflict in our marriages,
as single people, in our relationships with our friends, our children, our
parents, at school and at work. Where there are human beings you can be
assured there will be conflict. God’s Word describes the primary sources
of personal conflict and it gives us practical ways in which we can avoid
conflict, as well as work our way through conflict to healthy resolution.
Using
Matthew 18:15-20 as our guide for resolving conflict we will address the
following subjects:
Jan.7
– Communication: Getting the story straight. Joshua
22:10-34
Jan.14
– Diversity: Recognizing our differences. 1
Corinthians 12:12-31
Jan.21
– Money: Mastering our resources. Genesis 13:1-12
Jan.28
– Self: Addressing “I, Me, My, Mine.” James 4:1-2
Please pray for me as I prepare for preaching and teaching on this subject. I would also love to hear from you regarding any issues, observations or insight you might have regarding interpersonal conflict.
