Conflict

In the last few weeks I have had some students dealing with conflict in some of the relationships in their lives. When they asked me to help them I immediately thought of a passage in Matthew.

"If you brother or sister sins, go and point out their fault, just between the two of you. If they listen to you, you have won them over. But if they will not listen, take one or two others along, so that 'every matter may be established by the testimony of two of three witnesses.' If they still refuse to listen, tell it to the church; and if they refuse to listen even to the church, treat them as you would a pagan or tax collector. - Matthew 18:15-17

Christ shows us that the best thing we can do first is go to the person a talk it out. Many times we go around the person that we have the issue with and talk to many others, but this will just make the situation worse. Don't run from you conflict address it head on. If we avoid the conflict we are just letting the enemy chase us down.

We are all brothers and sisters in Christ and we need to work thing out together!! Check out the latest YouTube video to see more about how to deal with conflict.
