Healthy Conflict

Passage: James 4:1-10
Geoffrey Turner discusses healthy conflict. Conflict is inevitable. We often experience conflict in unhealthy and negative ways by withdrawing, escalating, negatively interpreting, or invalidating. Proverbs 18 speaks a lot on conflict. While conflict is inevitable, unhealthy conflict is avoidable. Paul says in Romans 12:18 “If possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all.” Not only is unhealthy conflict avoidable, but healthy conflict is attainable! In James 4:1-5, James highlights how we have conflict because we don’t get what we want. Healthy conflict is largely determined by our reaction to these unmet expectations through deliberate effort and grace. Healthy conflict requires humility, a life submitted to the Lord where we draw near to Him.
