But ensuring we are walking in the Spirit and living a life pleasing to God can be a tremendous help in dealing with difficult people.
Send us a textJesus gives us instruction on conflict resolution within the family of God that is very effective but sadly is not often used when conflicts arise.

But following these step (being filled with the Holy Spirit) brings about reconciliation which is very important in the Church.

In part two of our conversation with Marlene Chism, we dive deeper into the intricacies of navigating workplace conflict and cultivating emotional resilience. Marlene shares actionable strategies for overcoming internal and external conflicts by aligning with your core values and taking personal responsibility for your reactions. She highlights the importance of emotional regulation, urging leaders to interpret feelings like anger and frustration as signals to pause and regain control rather than react impulsively. By taking ownership of our emotional responses and openly addressing missteps, we can build stronger, more transparent relationships. Marlene also explores how clarity—whether in defining values, addressing workplace drama, or preparing for difficult conversations—is the key to effective leadership. She introduces her “Blueprint for Difficult Conversations,” emphasizing preparation, accountability, and clarity to guide meaningful dialogue. Through thought-provoking examples, including her visual framework of a boat, island, and shark, Marlene challenges leaders to refocus on outcomes rather than obstacles.

The Rock Church - Weekend Messages w/ Pastor Miles McPherson (Audio)
This series teaches on making Scripture-rooted decisions aligned with God's heart, sharing truth in love—even with those who disagree. In Part 1, Pastor Miles poses four thought-provoking questions for you to consider as a citizen of God's kingdom.
Have you experienced dead religion with its silly rules and stuffy traditions? It may surprise you to hear that this is the very thing that Jesus is against. Pastor Colin shows us why.
Have you ever wondered how far Jesus would go to bring the gospel to you? In order to save us, He had to break the powers that keep us away from God. Pastor Colin talks about how far He went.
Israel has occupied the West Bank of the Jordan River since 1967, after the third Arab-Israeli war, and ever since Israelis have settled on more and more of this contested land. Violence by armed settlers against their Palestinian neighbors has increased dramatically in recent years, as a far-right government came to dominate Israeli politics. Unless things change, the American journalist Nathan Thrall tells David Remnick, the future for Palestinians is “not unlike that of the Native Americans.” Thrall won a Pulitzer Prize for his book “A Day in the Life of Abed Salama,” which uses one isolated incident—a road accident in the West Bank—to illustrate the ways in which life under occupation has become nearly unlivable for Palestinians. On July 19th, the United Nations' International Court of Justice issued an advisory ruling that the occupation violates international law. While the world's attention is focussed on the devastating war in Gaza, and the escalating conflict between Israel and Hezbollah, the occupation of the West Bank remains a fundamental challenge for any peaceful resolution. Remnick also speaks with Palestinian lawyer and author Raja Shehadeh, a longtime advocate for peace with Israel who lives in Ramallah. Palestinians “are, in a sense, living under a different law than the law of the settlements. And so the settlers are going to be part of Israel, and the laws of Israel apply to them—and that's annexation—but not to us. There will be two communities living side by side, each subject to different laws, and that's entirely apartheid.” Shehadeh's new book is titled, “What Does Israel Fear from Palestine?” He argues that, as much as a concern for their security, many Israelis refuse to contemplate a two-state solution because recognizing Palestinians' claims to nationhood challenges Israel's national story. Although Thrall believes that any false hope about an end to the conflict is damaging, he acknowledges that U.S. sanctions on violent settlers is a meaningful step, and Shehadeh sees the I.C.J.'s ruling as a new degree of global pressure. “That could bring about the end of the era of impunity of Israel,” Shehadeh believes. “And that can make a big difference.” Plus, for the fiftieth anniversary of Philippe Petit's famous high-wire walk between the Twin Towers of the old World Trade Center—a quarter mile up in the air—The New Yorker's Parul Sehgal reads an excerpt from Gwen Kinkead's Profile of Petit titled “Alone and in Control.”

In this message, Pastor Rick explains how you become more like Jesus Christ when you actively work to reconcile with the people in your life that you have a conflict with.
