Every family fights. Every single one. Even if you have a friend whose family seems so perfect that you can't imagine them ever raising their voices at each other, I promise, they fight too. But the way we handle our fights with our family members is often, um, not so great. Maybe your fights get a little physical. Or passive aggressive. Or straight-up mean. Maybe your idea of "apologizing" is to just keep your distance until they get tired of being mad at you. Every family has its own set of unique unhealthy patterns. 

It's not easy to fight well with our families, but the Bible is full of guidance on how to love each other well — we just have to be willing to apply that at home. Like in the book of Ephesians, when Paul challenges us to not just move on or try to forget, but to actually make things right. Because in God's family, we reconcile with each other.

What does it mean to reconcile with others?
