Reason 14: The Joy of Managing Church Conflict
from First Bible Church Messages · host Steve Bateman
Church conflict is often a positive sign that people care about the church and the mission Jesus gave us. They are invested in the ministry and have strong feelings about what ought to be done and how to do it. But unmanaged conflict can soon divide a church, and that division decreases the level of joy. A happy church is not a church without conflict, but a church with conflict that is managed well.
