    For life in the church, Jesus gives us a process and promise to help us deal with conflict so that others may see Jesus clearly.

    16 Pentecost A Matthew 18:15-20 8 Sept.2002 Rev. Roger Haugen In my final year of university at Camrose Lutheran College, I was in charge of one of the dorms.

    Uses Matthew 18 to address the best way to approach interpersonal church conflicts.

    An amusing news story from Wales told of a feud in a church looking for a new pastor. It read: “Yesterday the two opposition groups both sent ministers to the pulpit. Both spoke simultaneously, each trying to shout above the other. Both called for hymns, and the congregation sang two -- each side ...read more

    Woe to the one who causes a Christian to stumble and fall

    INTRODUCTION • A 104 year-old woman was being interviewed by a Christian reporter. The reporter asked, Is it easier or more difficult to live the Christian life the older you get. The lady thought for a second and said, “Well, there is less peer pressure!” • If you have been a Christian for a ...read more

    The three stages to forgiving our brother from Christ’s parable of the unmerciful servant.

    Christ’s "Parable of the Unmerciful Servant" is preceeded by a succinct set of guidelines on what to do when a brother sins against you. (Matthew 18:15-17) 1. First, try to keep the matter private. Hopefully, this will be all that’s necessary to restore fellowship and friendship. (Verse 15) 2. ...read more

    Many times winning at all costs is the mantra that we live by. But Jesus challenges us to become like a child - what does that mean, really, and how does it help God rescue us?

    Why is it that we always measure everything by who the best at it or who’s the richest or most popular or highest ranking or most powerful? Every year we have lists and competitions and contests to determine these things – the Super Bowl, the NBA playoffs, the Forbes list of the richest Americans, ...read more

    How To Resolve Conflict

    based on 154 ratings
     | 16,150 views

    We all live with the consequences of conflict – the hurt and pain. Jesus gives us some real advice on how to properly deal with sin and conflict – and has some surprises about a very well known section of Scripture.

    How much time do we spend in conflict? It started back with Cain & Abel. You remember the story – the two first brothers argued because God favored Abel’s sacrifice more than Cain’s. You know how the story ends – with the first murder – and it seems, brothers (and even brothers and sisters) have ...read more

    “Moreover if your brother sins against you, go and tell him his fault between him and you alone. If he hears you have gained your brother” Matthew 18:15.

    Theme: Fraternal Correction Text: Ezek. 33:7-9; Rom. 13:8-10; Matt. 18:15-20 The best news is good news but we very rarely hear any good news these days.

    Jesus in Mt 18 offers us three routes to “conflict resolution” – similar in many ways to the three judicial routes that we have today. 1. The “ Out of Court” settlement 2. “Arbitration” in camera and 3. The full blown Confrontation in Open Court

    Sharrington/ Hunworth 08-09-02 Mt 18:15-20 Conflict Resolution This morning’s Gospel reading from Mt. 18 verses 15-20 is all about handling personal conflict in church. The text seen in isolation - reads rather like a legal manual on how to deal with someone else’s’ sin and what steps we need to ...read more
