Handling Conflict - King David Style (Part 2.2 Leadership Team Conflicts, Final excerpt)

In the first part of Leadership Team Conflicts we highlighted the character and nature of Joab, a very difficult person to have working for you - or along side you.  He is focused on the organizational goal, but self absorbed - and if the agenda of the organization and his personal goals collide, then there is no amount of manipulation he won't exercise to maintain control.... including murder in this case.In the second episode we began to look at four characteristics that come to the surface in dealing with Joab, as well as other conflicts in his life.  In the second episode we looked at the first two:   The Certainty of God's Sovereignty, and the Certainty of God's Call.    David had a firm grasp on the sovereignty of God (that is to say, he had a clear understanding that God was all knowing, ever-present, and clearly has the strength necessary to rule over his creation....  and David has submitted to this).   At the same time David has a clear understanding that this same God has anointed him to be king, and prophesied over his reign, promising a dynasty...   and the combination of these two provide an incredibly strong foundation for withstanding the difficulties of life. This episode will dive into the last two of the four characteristics that we see in David, in this study:  The Consequence of Confession, and the Consequence of Godly Coping Skills.“UPBEAT – ACCOUSTIC”Used By PermissionMusic by <a href="https://pixabay.com/users/stockaudios-28301327/?utm_source=link-attribution&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=music&utm_content=113986">Stockaudios</a> from <a href="https://pixabay.com//?utm_source=link-attribution&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=music&utm_content=113986">Pixabay</a>
