Ever found yourself locked in a heated disagreement, leaving you feeling exasperated and distanced from a loved one? We tackle questions such as when is it right to fight for a belief, how to measure your motives, and what guidance can be found in our faith. We even navigate the sometimes tricky terrain of speaking the truth while maintaining humility and patience, all through the relatable analogy of a car ride disagreement.

Deepening the dialogue, we plunge into the heart of love and unity during disagreements. We talk about how remembering your affection for the person on the other end of the argument can shape the conversation, and how to weigh your knowledge before entering a debate. Using insights from 1 Peter 3:8, we also discuss dealing with deadlocks. Regardless if you're wrestling with a personal or spiritual family difference, we'll equip you with the tools to handle the situation gracefully, leaving relationships stronger than ever.
