What do you do when your child comes home and says, “Mom, Dad, I have same-sex attraction” or “I want to embrace an LGBT identity”? For many Christian parents, these moments stir deep conflict and fear. But what if conflict is not something to avoid, but an opportunity to grow in love, truth, and grace?

In this episode, we dive into the heart of family conflict and discover how to handle disagreements without retreating or overreacting. Our guest. June Hunt, unpacks biblical wisdom on conflict resolution, identifying different relational “types” we encounter—attackers like the wolf, snake, and hornet, and avoiders like the turtle, chameleon, and weasel—and explains how to navigate these personalities with courage and compassion.

You’ll also hear powerful personal stories of growing up in a broken home, overcoming bitterness, and learning the power of forgiveness. Most importantly, we’ll explore how Christ transforms our relationships when we surrender our need to win and instead choose to love.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

• Why conflict in families is unavoidable—and how the Bible prepares us for it

• How to identify common conflict “types” and respond wisely to each

• Why forgiveness is essential even when others haven’t changed

• How Christ’s power makes true heart transformation possible

If you’re walking through tension with your kids, spouse, or extended family, this episode will give you practical tools and biblical hope for healing.
