As a result of COVID 19, people all over the world are spending more time at home to practice social distancing. Some have poked fun at this by saying countries will see a rise in child births, and calling them quarantine babies. While spending time together may result in some couples having more sex, for others it may result in more arguments, and a rise in what could be called quarantine divorces. Therefore we thought a timely relationship topic would be healthy conflict resolution tips.

For some these disputes are small, and for others they can be big. Yet, regardless of their size, how you deal with a conflict is what matters. Screaming to get your point across, or ignoring an issue are not helpful to bringing about conflict resolution.

Relationship conflict resolution is a learned behavior that we should all commit to learning. When there is a disagreement it’s important that there is resolve to that disagreement. Otherwise, resentment will begin to tare a couple apart as unresolved issues build up. What steps are you taking to deal with your relationship disagreements?

Key Scriptures:

• James 1:19-20   So then, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath; for the wrath of man does not produce the righteousness of God.
• Eph. 4:26-32 “Be angry, and do not sin”: do not let the sun go down on your wrath, nor give place to the devil. Let him who stole steal no longer, but rather let him labor, working with his hands what is good, that he may have something to give him who has need. Let no corrupt word proceed out of your mouth, but what is good for necessary edification, that it may impart grace to the hearers. And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were sealed for the day of redemption. Let all bitterness, wrath, anger, clamor, and evil speaking be put away from you, with all malice. And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God in Christ forgave you.
