Few of my relational counseling cases—whether marriage, church members, or roommates, and whether coaching one party or mediating both together—don’t start with Colossians 3:12–14, a passage worth mastering. Here Paul reminds Christians of God’s gracious salvation, their life-transforming identity in Christ, and eight relational graces that will mark every God-pleasing relationship. This workshop overviews the biblical truths summarized in chapter 7 in my book, Pursuing Peace: A Christian Guide to Handling Our Conflicts, and applies them in practical ways to our conflict coaching and premediation settings.

Sick of all this diversity tension that invades and disrupts our lives? We see it swirling and twirling around in our polarized society.

The workshop gives a divinely inspired, bold and fresh approach to looking at differences and conflict from various perspectives for clarity, like a prism illuminates otherwise distorted views.
