From the earliest days of recorded history, conflict has been an integral part of human life. Although conflict and crisis are painful, they are visible and vital signs of the perpetual work of the church and society. Viewed in this light, they become sources of growth and gifts to be pressed into service. The trouble with Jesus was--and is--that he stands in the midst of conflict, and allows the conflict actually to live in him even though it tears him apart, in order that new life might be born. The trouble with Jesus was--and is--that he invites us to follow where he has led. Newly revised and expanded, this book is not a how-to manual for problem-solving, but a hopeful and creative reflection on the positive aspects of conflict in our relationships and institutions, as demonstrated throughout scripture in the life and ministry of Jesus, the early church, the church today, and within ourselves. For those willing to embrace conflict and the work that it requires, the result is a celebration of the community that God has given us. Conflict is frightening. It threatens our sense of control and upsets our notions of order. It touches our vulnerability and reveals uncomfortable realities. Therefore, we tend to deny conflict, or we try to manage it, tame it. In fantasies of ultimate control, we banish conflict altogether. . . . But the ways of God in the real and quite tangible world in which I live are obviously not the same as my ways. In this world, I am rarely in agreement with others and God obviously tolerates much more untidiness than I find comfortable. This conflict, which is with me every hour and becomes quite apparent hundreds of times a day, arouses fear within me. I want to be in control, and yet I cannot be in control. from Conflict and a Christian Life This edition features a study guide designed by educator Amanda Millay Hughes, making it a valuable resource for group study by vestries, parish staffs, adult education groups, and anyone wishing to gain greater facility in negotiati

As Bible-believing Christians who are striving to serve and please God, it is certain that we will face constant conflict. If you are a born-again, blood-washed Christian who prays faithfully, reads the Bible faithfully, strives to obey the Bible, and witnesses faithfully, you can rest assured you will face constant conflict. God does not want us to faint, quit, or run away from the conflicts that we face. He does not want us to be fearful, nor does He want us to be unfaithful. In fact, He wants us to "be steadfast, unmovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord." He wants us to trust Him as we go through the storms of life. He wants us to grow in our faith as we face constant conflict--all for His glory. This book will show you through Jesus' teachings how to stay calm in the constant conflict that comes with the true Christian life and how to have peace in the midst of pain. You will learn what it means to be "wise as serpents and harmless as doves." And you will understand why you may find yourself at odds with those in your workplace, in your community, and even in your family. You will learn that you are not going to face persecution only because you believe in Christ but because, once you believe in Christ, you are willing to die for Christ and His Word rather than compromise with the world on the job, in the community, or even in your family. This life-change caused by believing the Gospel of Jesus Christ is what makes people hate you and want to persecute you. As a true believer in Christ, you cannot escape this constant conflict. It will happen, and it will not stop until you see the Lord Jesus Christ. This book will help you face the constant conflict of the true Christian life and be victorious over it.

All Christians struggle with their faith. We all have questions, we all doubt, we are all afraid at times. These conflicts are valuable because they cause us to struggle with God. (After all, struggling with God transformed Jacob into Israel). We often brush conflict under the carpet. But by combining the expressive and honest insights of John Donne's Holy Sonnets and the beautiful promises and hope of the Bible, Conflicted Faith helps us work through and resolve our faith struggles. This resolution deepens and grows our relationship with God. This book is a guide to navigating a range of faith challenges, doubts. and fears. It is also a devotional commentary on the extraordinary Holy Sonnets of 17th century English poet John Donne. It is a balm for those encountering the Wall in their faith journey (as described by Drs. Bill and Kristi Gaultier in "Journey of the Soul". It offers comfort, encouragement, and hope in the times they are most needed. Conflicted Faith does this by drawing extensively on the Bible to complement and respond to John Donne's so-familiar questions of faith. Some of the questions that are addressed with John Donne's help and the Bible's illumination and hope are: Can I be sure God loves me? Why doesn't God just fix me? What will happen when I die? Why is the Church so messed up? Are we really more than sophisticated animals? What is God's idea of beauty? John Donne may have lived hundreds of years ago. But his conflicts of faith are very much the same ones we experience when we live out our messy and unpredictable Christian lives. As we walk through them with him, the words of Scripture will comfort, encourage, and strengthen us. Truly, by God's grace and the power of the Holy Spirit, we grow in faith through, and because of, the conflicts we encounter on the way.

Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life, and they are they which testify of me. John 5:39 Taking this challenge by Jesus Christ to heart, Fundamental Conflict examines eternal life and its earthly security. Comments and opinions are strictly based on God's holy word which is referenced and written down in the book. This makes for easy reading by eliminating the need to look up each verse in the bible. Mainstream Christianity seems to be split on the issue of everlasting eternal security. But, it does not matter what you believe, you will find plenty of food for thought contained within these pages.

Tragic confrontations at schools throughout the past two decades are striking evidence that teens need help and training in peaceful conflict resolution. God knows each conflict a teen goes through--with their families, friends, and teachers--and he is in control. In this student edition of The Peacemaker, Ken Sande and Kevin Johnson show teens, youth leaders, parents, and pastors, how they can apply biblical principles to conflict situations, allowing for forgiveness and reconciliation instead of hatred or violence. With an approachable style that treats teens with respect, this much-needed resource can be used individually or as part of a small group or youth group study.
