Acts 15 gives us a front row seat to a sharp disagreement between Paul and Barnabas over John Mark. Pastor Abbie shows how even mission-minded leaders collide when deep convictions pull in different directions. Rather than avoiding conflict, we learn to name the roots beneath our reactions, recognize the gift in our differences, clarify roles and expectations, and keep our lives anchored to Jesus and his mission.
You will hear how God still advanced the gospel through their split and later brought reconciliation, and you will be invited to practice the same posture in your everyday relationships. If life is too short and the gospel is too big to let bitterness win, how do we handle conflict and hand it to Jesus? Press play for honest teaching, practical questions, and hope for healing.
