Teacher: David Marvin. We're in week two of our 'RELATE(ABLE)' series, we explore the vital topic of conflict resolution in relationships. Just as God reconciled with us, we are called to resolve conflicts in our lives. Conflict isn't inherently bad; it's an opportunity to grow, honor God, and strengthen relationships. We must recognize our part in conflicts, often stemming from selfishness, pride, or gossip, and own our role in resolving them. Jesus' teachings in Matthew 18 provide a clear path for resolving conflicts: address issues privately, involve others if needed, and seek reconciliation with humility and grace. Every conflict offers us a perspective to maintain, a part to own, and a path to pursue peace. It's not about avoiding conflict but resolving it effectively to reflect God's character and nurture our relationships. As we navigate conflicts, let's seek God's wisdom, extend grace, and pursue peace, understanding that forgiveness is crucial in releasing the burden of offense and building stronger connections.  The passage also discusses the significance of sharing the gospel with outsiders, urging us to approach conversations with wisdom, grace, and a genuine desire to connect others with the love of Christ. Let's take steps to prioritize intimacy with Jesus through prayer and to actively seek opportunities to share the gospel with those around us! Enjoyed the message?
