CONFLICT RESOLUTION BEGINS WITH PRAYER

WHEN THE DIVINE PRECEPTS ARE UNDERSTOOD,

IN WHICH ONE MIND IS NOT AT WAR WITH
ANOTHER, BUT ALL HAVE ONE SPIRIT, GOD,
ONE INTELLIGENT SOURCE, IN ACCORDANCE WITH
THE SCRIPTURAL COMMAND: "LET THIS MIND
BE IN YOU, WHICH WAS ALSO IN CHRIST JESUS."

—MARY BAKER EDDY, SCIENCE AND HEALTH WITH KEY TO THE SCRIPTURES, P. 276

In a recent Google search, I discovered more than 26 million entries for "conflict resolution," leaving the impression that there is an awful lot of "conflict" out there and far too little "resolution." Perhaps that's not so surprising when you realize that resolving disagreements involves trying to blend two sets of opposing or even incompatible views. Still, the numbers suggest there's a huge need for greater harmony and healing in human relations.
