The Remedy for Conflict
(Philippians 4:4-7)
For as long as there have been created beings, there has been conflict. From angels and Adam rebelling against God to family feuds, culture wars and church splits, conflict has been ever-present. Of course, the first-century church was not immune to conflict. Our lesson this morning focuses on a dispute between two prominent women in the church at Philippi. Paul outlines three steps to remedy this conflict that are especially helpful in church settings but are applicable in all areas of life where conflict arises.
