How To Resolve Conflict

based on 154 ratings

| 15,795 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.

You know how the story ends – with the first murder – and it seems, brothers (and even brothers and sisters) have ...read more
