Experience the healing power of biblical peacemaking as you learn to apply scriptural principles to conflict in the world around you. Parse the elements of arguments and begin to see that there's not really any difference that can't be overcome with the right perspective. It's practical guidance for resolving all types of conflict and hope for relationships you thought were unsalvageable.

Jesus said, "Blessed are the peacemakers." But it often seems like conflict and disagreement are unavoidable. Serious, divisive conflict is everywhere-within families, in the church, and out in the world. And it can seem impossible to overcome its negative force in our lives. In The Peacemaker, Ken Sande presents a comprehensive and practical theology for conflict resolution designed to bring about not only a cease-fire but also unity and harmony. Sande takes readers beyond resolving conflicts to true, life-changing reconciliation with family members, coworkers, and fellow believers. Biblically based, The Peacemaker is full of godly wisdom and useful suggestions that are easily applied to any relationship needing reconciliation. Sande's years of experience as an attorney and as president of Peacemaker Ministries will strengthen readers' confidence as they stand in the gap as peacemakers.

Attorney Ken Sande is president of Peacemaker Ministries. He regularly conciliates business, family, and church disputes and serves as a consultant to pastors and attorneys as they work to resolve conflicts outside the courtroom. Ken conducts seminars throughout the United States on biblical conflict resolution.

What a practical, easy to understand and biblical method of resolving human conflict by Ken Sande. It is not hard, but it is humbling and reveals how broken we are as people who need the loving teachings of Jesus to be the people God intended us to be. It will be a life-changing book and will be constantly referred to as you live out its biblical principals. A worth while read!

This is one of the best books on Christian living that I have read in years. In fact, I will be leading a small group study on this book, because I believe the principals are so life changing.

An excellent book to help Christians understand what and how the Bible says we should handle conflict--with ourselves, family, friends, and even enemies.

As a Christian lawyer, this book had a profound impact on the way I practice my profession. It inspired and equipped me to become an agent for healing and peace in many of the difficult situations I encounter as an attorney. The style is accessible and engaging, the message is powerful and compelling.
