Conflicting Correctly
We live at a moment in history when we're surrounded by conflict. It's inescapable that we'll find ourselves disagreeing with family and friends let alone people who have beliefs and perspectives very different than ours. We cannot simply acquiesce or please people by denying truth, but how do we conflict correctly? What spirit do we need to put on when we find ourselves in the midst of the conflict? The Apostle Paul offers some tangible and practical reminders about the attitudes we can adopt in moments of conflict.

Creating Spaces – 2K22
We believe that by 2022, through God's grace and power, we will see 2,000 people baptized and growing in relationship with Jesus through the Word, prayer, and community.
How can you play a part? Pray for those who don’t yet know Jesus, and share your life with them so they can experience good news through your words and actions.

We'll be launching a three week series on Relationship Realities with an emphasis on strengthening and encouraging marriages. Francis Chan commented, "...most marriage problems are not really marriage problems. They are God problems. They can be traced back to one or both people having a poor relationship with God or a faulty understanding of Him." Join us this week as we seek to reorient our view of God and renew our relationship with Him so we may relate well in all our human relationships!
Here are various Scriptures we'll be looking at next week.
