Week 2: Faith in Conflict

Where Faith Lives:

Living out Authentic Faith in Everyday Life

Week 2: Faith in Conflict

Scripture: Romans 12:17-21

Focus: Living faithfully doesn’t mean avoiding conflict-but handling it with grace, courage, and peace.

Reflection Questions for the Week?

  1. Is there a conflict in your life where God is calling you to respond differently?
  2. Where do you need to stop repaying evil for evil?
  3. Where is God inviting you to live peaceably, even if it’s hard?
  4. What boundary might you need to set in love, not resentment?
  5. Who is the Holy Spirit nudging you to forgive or reach out to with kindness?

Prayer to Carry with you:

God of golden grace,
In a world full of hurt and division, teach me the way of peace.
When I am wronged, give me courage to choose grace.
When conflict comes, help me to respond with love and not retaliation.
Fill my broken places with Your healing gold, and make me a vessel of reconciliation.
Let my faith shine, even through the cracks.
In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Like a kintsugi bowl-cracked, mended, and filled with gold-may your life reflect the beauty of faith lived well, even in conflict.
