Episode 186 — Matthew 18:15–20 — Work It Out Together
Article | July 5th, 2026
Master the art of biblical conflict resolution in this transformative study of Matthew 18:15-20. Jesus provides a clear process for addressing sin and hurt in relationships—one designed with love at every step. This episode challenges our cultural tendency to avoid conflict and shows why avoidance destroys relationships while honest confrontation heals them. Discover the progression Jesus outlines: go privately with the goal of restoration, bring witnesses for clarity and fairness, and involve the church community when needed. Learn why confrontation is actually an act of profound love, and how Jesus promises to be present in the midst of difficult conversations. Through contemplative meditation and practical preparation, find the courage to address hurt with humility, seek restoration rather than judgment, and trust that God is with you in the hard conversations. This episode will transform how you handle conflict and strengthen your relationships.
