Why Some Conflicts Keep Growing and How to Stop Them? | Matthew 18:15-17

Feeling stuck in a conflict and unsure if it can be fixed? Tension with a friend, family member, or coworker can quietly build until something cracks.

Relationships get “gunky” over time—not because we’re bad, but because we neglect maintaining them, like ignoring a clogged air filter. Using Matthew 18 and Colossians 3, this message shows how to approach others with humility, speak honestly, and extend forgiveness. Jesus teaches how to release bitterness without pretending nothing happened and make forgiveness a practical, daily choice.

Even small acts of honesty and humility can transform strained relationships. Take a step today—reach out, reflect, or start a conversation and prevent conflict from turning into crisis.
