Identity During Conflict

Problems rarely go away on their own.  Sometimes addressing a problem can seem like it makes things worse.  Last week we looked at the Leadership at the Jerusalem Church giving Paul wisdom as they address the elephant in the room.  Early followers of Jesus did not ignore the elephants, realizing that often things will get uglier before they get better.  Pride doesn’t go down quietly.  Conflict can happen, and often the greatest contribution we can make is choosing our identity during the conflict.
