Messy: Loving others isn’t easy #2-“Jesus & Family Conflicts”

Messy: Loving others isn’t easy
Written By Kurt Willems
 

Description

Conflict follows relationships. Relationships are "Messy." No matter what we do, we will find ourselves in challenging conversations and with people that push our buttons. As followers of Jesus, how might we engage with a posture of openness and grace? What does Jesus show us about speaking the truth in love? What do we do when we've broken relationships and desire reconciliation? This series explores how we might step into conflict with intention, humility, and love.
