  1. Flight! Fight! CONFLICT! Resolution

  2. From last week… Once I have surrendered to the purpose of glorifying God in all I do and have dealt with my own sin, then I am ready to take the next step: • If I have offended someone or am aware of a conflict or issue with them I need to go to them and be reconciled. 2. Sometimes that involves confronting the other person’s sin.

  3. From last week… 3.Before I go, I need to make sure I have completely forgiven the other person. 4.I should go gently, with the goal of restoration. 5.I must speak the truth in love with the goal of restoring, encouraging, and strengthening the other person.
