When two or three are gathered….there will be conflict. That isn’t what Jesus says, but also seems to be truer these days than ever before. The Church is no different. But one thing that the Church needs to be able to do differently is handle conflict. And the best way to handle conflict is through communication. That is why, this upcoming pastor’s study is going to dive into a book called Crucial Conversations. 

 

“When people first hear the term “crucial conversation,” many conjure up images of presidents, emperors, and prime ministers seated around a massive table while they debate the future. Although it’s true that such discussions have a wide-sweeping impact, they’re not the kind we have in mind. The crucial conversations we’re referring to are interactions that happen to everyone. They’re the day-to-day conversations that affect your life.”¹

 

So what is a crucial conversation? The first chapter explains it quite well, but in a nutshell it is whenever the stakes are high, and emotions run strong. And so, though this will not be your typical let’s break out the Bible kind of study, we will learn more than ever how to be church as we learn to communicate better about the crucial conversation topics.
