What is the single biggest source of conflict in your marriage right now? Join Chip as he teaches you how to fight fair in marriage.

What I learned on the sandlot from the “Barnes Boys”

  • Conflict is normal, it's an opportunity for growth, it must be diffused or it will destroy, and it demands rules so no one gets hurt

God’s perspective on conflict:

  • Conflict is inevitable in a fallen world. -Jn. 16:33
  • Conflict flows from our differences and our selfishness. -Jms. 4:1-3
  • Conflict is an opportunity for growth. -Phil. 2:1-4

The most common communication styles:

  1. Turtles: The goal is to avoid.
  2. Sharks: The goal is to win.

How to diffuse conflict in your marriage:

  • D: DEFINE the problem (on your own). -Pr. 15:14
  • I: INITIATE a time to talk. -Matt. 5:23-24
  • F: FOCUS on the “perceived” problem, not the person. -Pr. 18:19
  • F: FEEL their pain. -Pr. 17:17
  • U: UNCOVER the root problem. -Pr. 20:5
  • S: SET things right between you. -Jms. 5:16
  • E: ESTABLISH a specific action plan that addresses the issue discussed. -Jms. 1:22-25
