For Christians who: - have been seriously wronged or abused 
- have read lots of other "Christian" self-help books 
- who are at the end of their rope, being beaten up by other Christians saying platitudes like, "Forgive and forget." 
- who are not finding emotional relief and want to feel loved and valuable to God again 
In this book: 
- I will help you release unforgivable offenses to God 
- I will help you better understand how God feels about your conflict and you 
- I will help you avoid the false guilt connected to a false responsibility to forgive people who aren't sorry 
- I will help you help others involved in unresolved and unresolvable conflict find sanity 
- I will help you deal more effectively with the fools in your life 
 The End of Conflict looks at a very misunderstood topic in the Christian community: biblical conflict resolution.
The discussion is framed in terms of the now and the not yet. It is a welcome addition to the Christian literature on biblical peacemaking. Uniquely, the book looks first at God s nature and His response historically to conflict within His created order. It then lays out the key differences between the path of wisdom and the path of foolishness as it pertains to conflict resolution. Each chapter begins with the author s personal story and ends with a fictional illustration of people in real-life conflict. This is no simplistic, formulaic or simple steps approach to the problem of conflict and broken relationships.
Differentiating the author's view from the typical Christian views of the day are the following ideas: (1) Conflict is not a normal part of life but a temporary reality as a result of the fall. (2) Conflict is not the result of: our humanness, diversity, scarcity or unmet needs. (3) God deals in many different ways with conflict (forgiveness is not His only option). (4) God doesn t forgive everyone and only forgives those who come in confession and repentance (honesty before Him). (5) Christians, likewise, are not called to forgive everyone, but those who come in confession and repentance. (6) There is a biblical way to deal with conflicts that go unresolved: the way of release. (7) The Christian is called to pray for enemies, not to unilaterally forgive them or to continue in relationship as normal with them. In these and many other ways, The End of Conflict is a new (though it reflects older Christian thinking from days gone by) approach to the subject of Christian conflict resolution, conciliation and biblical peacemaking.

Reduce conflict and build health into your workplace team. Life has a few unalterable principles. Among them is the principle of entropy: the tendency for things to move toward disorder and decay unless additional energy is added into the equation. Workplace teams without fail operate, with or without our conscious awareness, according to this principle. Resisting this tendency, conflict prevention and healthy team building are two sides of the same coin. Healthy, successful, and fulfilled teams master the principles in this book to push back entropy proactively. Doing nothing guarantees things won't change. In this book, learn how to: - better understand and anticipate the dynamics that underlie conflict development - prevent conflict at all three levels: interpersonal, interpersonal and systemic - take the current temperature of your team as it pertains to the potential for conflict - build and maintain a healthy team by applying the Healthy Teams model - assess the current level of team health as a benchmark to measure future growth against Pushing Back Entropy includes three appendices on the subject of the three sciences included in the TTI Trimetrix EQ assessment that forms the diagnostic basis for conflict prevention and team building. These three sciences: behavioral styles, motivators and emotional intelligence, serve as the measures of team development.

Missions: How the Local Church Goes Global (9Marks)

Who is responsible for global missions? Even though most Christians will never move overseas, the Bible enlists every Christian and every local church in the grand project of global missions. The local church is the engine of world missions. But where should a church begin? Churches don’t need a complicated missions program. They need the Bible and the wisdom to know how to apply it. This book points to Scripture and offers practical steps for training and supporting missionaries, forming international partnerships, sending short-term teams, and engaging the nations both at home and abroad. Part of the 9 Building Healthy Churches series.
