Every pastor faces conflict in the church, and Alfred Poirier has this loving reminder: we can run, but we can't hide. Jesus set the example as the Incarnate Peacemaker, and Scripture clearly calls his servant pastors to be ministers of reconciliation. So the issue is not whether to be a mediator but what kind of mediator to be. Thoroughly exploring the theology of reconciliation, Poirier

Peacemaking: The healing alternative to conflict in the church. Every pastor faces conflict in the church, and Alfred Poirier has this loving reminder: we can run, but we can't hide. Jesus set the example as the Incarnate Peacemaker, and Scripture clearly calls his servant-pastors to be ministers of reconciliation. So the issue is not whether to be a mediator but what kind of mediator to be. Thoroughly exploring the theology of reconciliation, Poirier adds lessons from personal experience and lists practical steps for effective mediation. With this comprehensive guide, you can embrace peacemaking confidently as a way to glorify God through the overcoming power of the gospel. And, as Jesus promised all peacemakers, you will be blessed.

______________

"The Peacemaking Pastor is pastoral theology at its best. It is, first, theology, a profound biblical exploration of the gospel of God's grace in the cross of Christ and of its power to overcome the conflicts that divide us and damage our witness. This is not, first of all, a handbook of negotiation techniques and communication skills, but rather an exploration of what it means for pastors to cast themselves on the mercy and heart-changing power of God, and then to lead people in conflict to do the same. And, because The Peacemaking Pastor is theological, it is profoundly pastoral and practical, peppered with illustrations from the author's experience that show Christ's power to smash our hearts' idols, break down walls of suspicion and self-defense, and bring us together in surprising unity and love. Pastor, if you are looking for tools to make others behave better and to make conflict 'just go away,' while you yourself remain unchanged, you should steer clear of this book. But if you are prepared to be challenged to live by faith in a God whose grace can heal relationships in ways beyond our imagination, take up and read--and pray and preach and counsel." Dennis E. Johnson, academic dean and professor of practical theology, Westminster Seminary California

Beautiful jacket and well made but these sizes are WAY OFF
I've worn a 42 for decades so I ordered the US 42. It is at least four sizes too small and the sleeves are an awkward two inches too long. Not sure why the sizing is such a problem. The jacket is well made and is beautiful and would have loved to have kept it. But if the manufacturer is making truly odd sizes, I will look elsewhere. Even if these may be Asian sizes, why would the sleeves be so long?

Beautiful
The jacket is amazing. It is definitely bright and shiny. It does run small. I ordered a 3XL and it was super snug.

Perfect! Buy your normal size.
Size: X-Large, Color: Green -Jacket
I AM BLOWN AWAY! I ordered this and a shirt less than 12 hours ago and they arrived this morning. I was worried because I've never ordered anything that I didn't have to go up 3 sizes but I read the reviews and it seemed like they have finally figured it out! The jacket is amazing and fit like I had it tailor-made. All of the advertising says "slim fit", which I AM NOT. I ordered an XL and I have 44 & 46reg suit jackets. This is the best of the nearly 2500 purchases I have made from Amazon! This brand just needs to shuffle the letters in their name to be I M A G I N E!
