Most families are made up of people with very different temperaments and personalities—a perfect environment for lots of conflict. When a problem arises, what is your responsibility? Should you confront the difficulty, or should you ignore it and just “sweep it under the rug”? Dealing with conflict or peacemaking is very important to God. Jesus said, Blessed [happy] are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God (Matthew 5:9). This session will address the source of conflicts, truth from God’s Word regarding your responsibility in conflict, and practical suggestions on how to deal with conflict with the goal of pursuing peace and unity in the home and in your ministry.
