Rather than making tithe a lever, let’s see how things are wired together. Also, seven updated tips for conflict resolution will be a help to every viewer.

Pastor Larry Kirkpatrick has been engaged in pastoral ministry since 1994, serving several congregations. He has authored books including Real Grace for Real People, and Cleanse and Close.
