Kingdom values are totally reversed from the world. Our cultural
values may contribute harm and pain to others. How should we handle difficult situations? Sherwood Lingenfelter has an interesting perspective on how to deal with
this:
"When we follow God's
way we focus on loving one another and extending grace to our brothers and
sisters in contexts where we have disagreements and conflicts with them. We try
to implement the commands of the Lord to love one another, to deny ourselves,
and to be servants. Our relationships are then guided not by logic, but by the
illogic of love that flows from grace."[1]
