Lesson Preview

     I was a member of a church, not Concord, where an older couple mentioned to me that they had never had an argument in almost 50 years of marriage.  My immediate thought was - have they ever talked to each other?  On a couple of occasions I have visited with engaged couples as they were preparing to get married.  One of the questions I like to ask is does the other person fight fair.  On a few occasions the reply has been, "I don't know - we have not had a fight or argument."  My reply has been, "Then do not get married until you do." 

     Relationships are fun and rewarding but they take work.  Any time you have two people,  you have two opinions and often times they differ.  This is fertile ground for conflict.  This week we continue our study on relationships.  Coming from 2 Corinthians 5:11-7:4, we will consider the Biblical formula for reconciliation in a fractured relationship. 

Peace,
