Jim Van Yperen wrote a terrific book on resolving conflict entitled Making Peace: A Guide to Overcoming Church Conflict. One of the topics Yperen tackles is individualism. He notes specifically that western individualism actually works against spiritual vitality and fellowship because it breeds autonomy at the cost of biblical community. Individualism results in consumerism. Visit us at First Cause! --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/reveration/support

Jesus said in Matthew 18:20, “Wherever two or three gather in my name, there am I with them.” Is it possible that what he really meant to say was “Wherever two or three are gathered, there will be problems"? It certainly seems to be true anyway. In a world saturated with conflict peacemaking is tough work. But for those who would follow after Jesus, peacemaking is part of the call. Special thanks to Matt Chandler, Todd Pickett, and Jim Van Yperen for their contributions to this message. To learn more about Mosaic, visit us at mosaiclincoln.org.
