SEEKING PEACE THROUGH RECONCILIATION OVERCOMING RESISTANCE WITHIN OURSELVES AND OTHERS A GROUP STUDY PART 2 This is the second book in a series of two small books which grew out of the desire and need for the material in the book of the same name to be put into a shorter format for study in various groups. Our lives involve many relationships with parents, siblings, spouses, children, extended family, friends, students, neighbors, co-workers, colleagues, team members, fellow Christians, and even acquaintances. We may encounter people in stores, supermarkets, movie theaters, restaurants, banks, and social media sites. With all these interactions to navigate it is inevitable that disputes will arise. Conflicts escalate rapidly, tempers flare, and then words and actions can spiral out of control. How can we prevent these conflicts from occurring? When they do, how do we resolve them? How can we handle the obstinate who refuse to reconcile with us? How do we deal with our anger which might come raging up from within us? These answers are found in God's blueprint from His Word. This book critical discusses how we seek and find peace through reconciliation no matter what the issues may be. Every chapter opens with a typical scenario in which the principle might be applied. A scriptural principle and biblical explanation is provided to guide you. An ancient portrait is presented which demonstrates how Jesus, Peter, Paul, and others lived out these powerful truths. A modern portrait of a counseling session follows which details how the author applied these critical principles in different circumstances. Each chapter concludes with a prayer to the Lord you may use. A workbook companion can also be purchased to guide your study. If you lead the group study, there is an instructor's manual with additional notes and the workbook questions with suggested answers from the text. For a quick read there is an abridged edition (A Book Short) which can also be purchased. This book discusses topics such as conflict, reconciliation, decision-making, refusing to reconcile and the consequences to you and others, the spiritual battle involved, and how we should act like Christ. This can involve spouses in marriage, partners in dating, parents and children, friends, neighbors, co-workers, fellow students, acquaintances, and strangers. You are given Scriptural principles backed by bible verses. You will find many concepts about conflict resolution that can be used as quotes. May you find reconciliation in your relationships as you read. May you find restoration in your relationships as you read.
