Conflict abounds in the church of Jesus Christ. Reconciliation within the body, however, will not happen with the right "method" or "set of principles". In Making Peace, readers are challenged to place their church and all of its dissension under the Lordship of Jesus Christ. No library descriptions found. |

Van Yperen is a no-nonsense kind of guy, basing his conflict resolution strategies on biblical principles and an understanding of human psychology. A great resource for anyone whose church is struggling, or -- and this is what I found most intriguing -- anyone needing a reminder on the effective ways to solve conflicts between people in the church. Yes, that means between you and whoever it is that you keep avoiding in the hallway or that woman you haven't talked to since the potluck last summer... think that's a healthy way of dealing with things, because avoiding it isn't hurting anyone? It is, and it's not healthy. It's a simmering pot of resentment that, over time, will infect and permeate the attitudes of those around you.
I think I could have used this book about seven years ago. :) ( )
