“The way we handle conflict reveals our focus, our desire, and our priority.”

This week at Steel City Church (Pittsburgh, PA), Pastor Chris Richards takes us into 1 Corinthians 6 to explore how the church is called to navigate conflict radically differently than the world around us.

Instead of lawsuits and division, Paul invites the Corinthian church—and us—to become peacemakers marked by humility, grace, and an unrestrained willingness to forgive.

🔎 This message explores:

• Why Paul rebukes Christians for taking each other to secular courts

• The difference between civil disputes and criminal accountability

• What it really means to be royal priests and saints in Christ

• How individualism and image management can ruin relationships

• Why Jesus’ example invites us to absorb wrongs rather than escalate them

• What it means to be a light in the darkness, even when it costs us

This isn’t just about conflict resolution—it’s about Christ-like transformation.
