Conflict Resolution
Conflict within community is a reality...let us help you find restored relationshipsRestore relationships previously hampered by conflict
Transform your church’s approach to dealing with conflict.
Conflict interferes with unity.
Conflict within a community can be caused by many things. Personal agendas, misunderstandings, jealousy, grudges, trauma, past wounds, a bad day at home or work, the list goes on.
Jesus longed for his followers to be known by a spirit of love and unity. A unity that helps point people to God. If we are caught in a cycle that bypasses peace, we are limiting our mission and vision.
Conflict is a normal part of community life. We need an approach to conflict that will allow for restoration, transformation, and renewal of relationships.
Be the church Christ wants by making a change.

Mediation
Conflicts can often seem insurmountable and impossible.
Those involved can become so entrenched in the details and emotions that finding a path forward becomes overwhelming.
Personal interests are too important, and compromise seems like losing. Being in the same room together can often lead to inappropriate responses and harmful actions.
In situations like these, help is needed.
Often, a third party can help navigate a path toward resolution.
Mediation is a tool that can be used to resolve conflict peacefully. As a tool, it can lead to restored relationships and transformed situations.
Let one of our trained mediators help resolve conflict so you can focus on your mission and vision.
