Today we land the plane on our current mini-series, “Rest Despite Barriers”, by looking at the barrier of distressing conflict, specifically, relational conflict. Indeed, there is perhaps no greater pain than the pain of relational conflict. Think about it. Haven’t most of the deepest pains in your life revolved around some sort of relational conflict that
