As followers of Christ, we are urged by the Apostle Paul in Romans 12: 18 “If at all possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone.” We’ve probably all experienced the peace and freedom that come from resolving a conflict in a biblical way. But sometimes conflict gets to the point that it’s hard to work out on our own. James 1:22 says, “Do not merely listen to the Word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says.”

Do you feel confused, angry or alone in your confllict and don't know what to do? In an effort to help you "be at peace with all men", we can help!  We have a team of people in place who can  help you respond to a conflict in a biblically faithful way.  Please contact the church office at 656-8747 and someone from our Peacemaker Team will be in touch with you.
