Conflicts in Relationships

Bob Goody - April 7th 2024

This Sunday, Bob talks to us about dealing with conflict in relationships.
Bob shares some of his personal family situation growing up, and how in his family home conflict was often not handled well.  After he became a Christian, he reached out to his family in a different way.

Conflicts can arise in every context.  With our friends, with family and with colleagues.  Jesus said ‘Let your light shine!’  How do we do that? Here are Bob’s points to help us:
Start with love - “Above all, love each other deeply, love covers a multitude of sins” 1 Peter 4vs8
Make sure you look after your own emotions - so you are functioning well and able to handle yourself well. (Ephesians 4 v26-27) Sometimes we need to step back in conflict situation to give space to deal with the situation and then step back in. BUT DO DEAL WITH IT!
Think before you speak. What will build people up, and benefit them? (Ephesians 4 v29)
Listen (James 1 vs 19) … quick to listen, slow to speak, slow to become angry.
Forgive! Ask God for help, he’s with us in it. Ask God to come into the conflict.  (Mark 11 vs 24-25)
Prayer can help with this… speak the name of Jesus into these situations
