The Spiritual and Practical Aspects of Negotiation of Church Conflict
Negotiation has important Biblical and practical foundations as a means of addressing and resolving conflict in church environments. The history of conflict in our church teaches us many lessons today. How can we negotiate conflict and work through differences with our brothers and sisters? What are some of the different models of negotiation? What are some of the key biblical principles to help me understand negotiation? How does negotiation relate to other methods of dispute resolution, such as mediation, arbitration, litigation, or self-help? How do we avoid zero-sum and us vs. them dynamics? What are ways to avoid escalating conflict? How does framing and reframing relate to negotiation? What spiritual perspectives and practices are helpful to understanding and preparing for negotiation? What issues should we be mindful of in negotiating property disputes? What other resources are available to understanding and practicing negotiation?
