No one wants to experience the pain that comes when conflict in our lives is handled poorly. Unfortunately, when dealing with fallen people in a fallen world, conflict is going to happen in our relationships. While we can't escape conflict in this life, we can approach it in a way that doesn't destroy our relationships and dishonor God. By learning to deal with conflict God's way, we can experience peace even in the most challenging moments of conflict that we face.

Add a "Make & Take" snack to your Master Club, Sunday School, Day Camp or Children's Church that matches your Bible lesson or missionary story. In addition to relieving hunger pangs, discipline issues, and boredom, your children will really go home with the lesson deep inside. In this workshop, you, too, will get to "taste and see that the Lord is good" and go home with patterns to help add some spice to your Master Club or other ministries. This really made a difference this summer in eight weeks of Summer Day Camp for us! You will not only learn how to make these special treats but will also get some tips on how to get help to prepare ahead!

It's not just about what we look for in a volunteer. What do volunteers look for in leaders who they want to follow and serve with?
