Hopefully it doesn't come to this but if you find the need to involve others what's the best way to handle it? Who should you talk to and when? In this the fifth and final week of our peacemakers series we will talk about how to make those final efforts towards peace.
Question 4: What if the conversation didn't go so well?
Big Idea: The goal of the process is restoration not condemnation
Matthew 18:15-20 ESV
The Process
1. Overlook it if you can
2. Reflect on your part
3. Have a 1:1 conversation
4. Bring 1 or 2 others with you
5. Talk to the leaders of the church
Examples:
1. The Good: Jesus and Peter (see John 21)
2. The Bad: Saul and David (See 1 Samuel 18-26)
3. The Ugly: (See Genesis 16:1-16; 21:8-21)
