Learn how to build bridges, rather than burn them, When Getting Along Seems Impossible.

It's true conflict is an inevitable part of life. "Murphy's Law" prevails, and even the closest in-terpersonal relationships can sometimes be ag-gravating. But as H. Newton Malony contends in his new book, When Getting Along Seems Impossible, if you can't avoid conflict altogether, you can at least endeavor to reduce it. As he puts it, "Learning how to reduce conflict is a necessary skill both for our own mental health and for getting along with other people."

In this helpful book, Malony offers a realistic, practical, and spiritual approach to understanding the why of conflict and how you can best handle it. He shows how conflict occurs within ourselves when discord with others threatens our self-es-teem. Dr. Malony therefore introduces a Christian approach to managing stress through remember-ing, reaffirming, repentance, and reasserting. Through illustrative case studies and sound coun-sel, he guides you in implementing conflict man-agement in your life.
