Resolve – Week 2 | Get Out Of The Tarpits

Stuck in a feud that won’t quit — replaying the same arguments, cheering when the other side stumbles, losing sleep over grievances that only widen the rift? This message calls out the familiar pull of self-righteousness, conflict entrepreneurs, and social-media outrage that drag good people into “tarpits” where every move makes things worse. Psalm 1 provides the lens: don’t walk, stand, or sit with the voices that feed the fight. Instead of piling on rules or more arguing, the sermon points to a different posture — delighting in the story and steadying grace at the heart of the Bible so you become the kind of person who roots down and thrives even when everything around you dries up. Expect practical checks to recognize high conflict, an invitation to changing whom you follow, and a hopeful way forward that actually frees relationships rather than fueling them. Stay for the surprising ways rooted faith loosens the grip of the tar pits.
