Resolving conflict on Valentine's Day, on this edition of Truth and Love.

I'm Heath Lambert and you're listening to Truth and Love, a podcast of the Association of Certified Biblical Counselors,

where we seek to provide biblical solutions

for the problems that people face.

It's Valentine's Day week, and everybody is thinking about romance.

Everybody's thinking about the fun they want to have with their spouse or with their boyfriend

or their girlfriend.

But everybody who's been in a romantic relationship for any amount of time know that those

relationships come with the baggage of conflict.

There is conflict in all of our relationships.

Good relationships are characterized not by the absence of conflict, but by people who

know how to respond to conflict when it arises. And so we want to

talk about how to give your spouse, how to give your boyfriend or girlfriend, the gift of conflict

resolution on this Valentine's Day. And we have a really great guest to help us talk about that this

week. He's Dr. Ernie Baker. He is the pastor of

counseling and discipleship at the First Baptist Church of Jacksonville, Florida. He is the adjunct

professor of biblical counseling at the Master's University and the chair of their online

biblical counseling program. And he is also a fellow with the Association of Certified

Biblical Counselors. Dr. Baker, we're glad that you're here. and he is also a fellow with the association of certified biblical counselors.

Dr. Baker, we're glad that you're here, and you believe, as we all believe at ACBC, that the

Bible is about our conflicts. What principles are embedded within the Gospel of Jesus Christ for dealing with the kind of relational tension that we all experience?

Thanks, Heath.
