What challenges do we face in applying God’s wisdom about conflict today? How can we pray about conflicts, war, peace and reconciliation?
In this episode, we’re joined by special guest Rachel Jones to discuss what Proverbs says about conflict. We explore various aspects of conflict we experience today, whether that's in personal relationships at home, work and church, in our wider communities, or on an international scale. Proverbs says much about avoiding conflict, but we also consider whether there are times when it’s necessary.
The conversation touches on different causes of conflict such as pride, greed and injustice, and highlights the wisdom we find in Proverbs and the New Testament to help us resolve conflict and restore relationships. We finish by asking how we can pray about conflict and share the message of hope we have as Christians.
