Digital Logos Edition
Everyone encounters conflict—whether it be with a coworker, family member, friend, or complete stranger. And yet, we all desire harmony in our relationships. Resolving Everyday Conflict is a practical, biblical, and concise guide to peacemaking in everyday life that can turn your troubled relationships into peaceful ones.
With the proven advice found in this book, authors Ken Sande and Kevin Johnson show you how to achieve not only a cease-fire but also unity and harmony. Their biblical guidance will take you beyond resolving conflicts to true, life-changing reconciliation with family, coworkers, and fellow believers.
The Logos Bible Software edition of this volume is designed to encourage and stimulate your understanding of conflict resolution. Scripture passages link directly to your English translations, and important concepts link to the dictionaries, encyclopedias, and a wealth of other resources in your digital library.
“Conflict happens when you are at odds with another person over what you think, want, or do.” (Page 14)
“many conflicts are the result of sinful attitudes and desires that lead to sinful words and actions.” (Page 17)
“Conflict happens among Christians because our sinful self gladly cooperates with messages that say ‘I can have whatever I want.’” (Page 15)
“Peacemakers see conflict as an opportunity to solve problems in a way that not only benefits everyone involved but also honors God.” (Page 37)
“‘Even if I’m only 2 percent responsible for a conflict, I’m 100 percent responsible for my 2 percent.’” (Page 62)
