Episode 45: Navigating Conflict

Conflict in ministry is hard.

It is hard because it often feels personal. It is hard because it can evoke feelings like anger, self-doubt, fear or shame, feelings that are unpleasant to digest. And it is hard because change of any kind is often accompanied by some conflict.

Yet change is also essential for flourishing in ministry. And it follows that conflict is often one aspect of health and growth.

So how do we do we navigate conflict well?

 

This episode of #3MMM explores how we can reframe the normalcy of conflict. Rather than being something we seek out, or try to avoid at all costs, conflict is better understood as a regular and unavoidable byproduct of healthy change, renewal, and growth.
