When Believers Don’t See Eye to Eye

Disagreement among Christians can feel unsettling, especially when it stirs old wounds or makes us question our place in community.

In this episode, Angie shares a personal story from her early ministry years and turns to Acts 15 to explore how God met the early church in a moment of deep tension.

Whether you’re walking through a disagreement right now or carrying tender memories from the past, this conversation will meet you gently and remind you that God is present even in the places we’d rather avoid.

What You’ll Hear in This Episode

• Angie’s personal story of navigating disagreement in her first pastorate and how the Holy Spirit steadied her
• Why Acts 15 (“The Circumcision Decision”) is one of Scripture’s most honest, hope-filled pictures of conflict in Christian community
• The three invitations God offers when believers disagree:
  discernment, formation, and reflection
• Why conflict doesn’t have to be a threat to unity but can actually become a place of spiritual maturity
• A fresh look at Romans 12:18 and what it really means to “live at peace… as far as it depends on you”
• Gentle encouragement for anyone who feels misunderstood, weary, or wary of church community
