Fighting for Peace Helps Christians Confront Conflict with Character | News Releases

MEDIA ADVISORY, March 2, 2009 – Conflict in relationships is a fact of life. When people are around each other there is not only the potential for conflict, but there is going to be conflict in some form, to some extent, at some time. Rather than fearing conflict, Dr. Dennis D. Morgan encourages readers to see conflict as an invitation from God to strengthen relational closeness in Fighting for Peace, the new book being released in April from Watertree Press. MEDIA ADVISORY, March 2, 2009 – Conflict in relationships is a fact of life. When people are around each other there is not only the potential for conflict, but there is going to be conflict in some form, to some extent, at some time. Rather than fearing conflict, Dr. Dennis D. Morgan encourages readers to see conflict as an invitation from God to strengthen relational closeness in Fighting for Peace, the new book being released in April from Watertree Press.

Fighting for Peace is not a quick-fix, do-it-yourself, ten-easy-steps kind of book. That approach is very popular, especially when the book is short, simple, and brought down to the level of the everyday reader. Instead, Dr. Morgan counts on readers’ willingness to look at human conflicts from a bigger and deeper perspective. A quick fix requires only that people do something. For a long-term resolution, people must put effort into understanding where conflicts come from and what their purpose can be.

Dr. Morgan helps readers see how conflicts fit into relationships with other people and with God using a Christian worldview as the paradigm to understand, handle, and benefit from conflict. Fighting for Peace inspires readers to see conflict as a means God uses to move people into a fuller experience of peace and love in relationships.

Fighting for Peace has been hailed as a “readable invitation to godly humility” by Mark McMinn, author of Sin and Grace in Christian Counseling. Tim Clinton, President of The American Association of Christian Counselors, declared “Dr. Morgan presents us with a fresh and new virtue-based positive paradigm for conflict resolution.” Theologian and Pastor Sinclair Ferguson praises Fighting for Peace as “anchored in vital biblical teaching, patiently expounded from Scripture, and then carefully drawn out in application.”
