Winsome Conviction - Disagreeing Without Dividing the Church Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Christianity Today Book of the Year award of Merit We generally assume that those sitting around us in church share our beliefs. But when our personal convictions are contested by fellow Christians, everything changes.

We feel attacked from behind. When other Christians doubt or deny our convictions, we don't experience it as a mere difference of opinion, but as a violation of an unspoken agreement. Tim Muehlhoff and Rick Langer offer a guide to help Christians navigate disagreements with one another.

In today's polarized context, Christians often have committed, biblical rationales for very different positions.

How do we discern between core biblical convictions and secondary issues?

How do we cultivate better understanding and compassion for those we disagree with?

Muehlhoff and Langer provide lessons from conflict theory and church history on how to avoid the dangers of groupthink and how to negotiate differing biblical convictions to avoid church splits and repair interpersonal ruptures. Christian unity is possible. Discover how we can navigate differences by speaking in both truth and love.
