Sarcasm. Hurt feelings. Misunderstanding. Alienation. When hurt people connect with other hurt people, relationship breakdowns are sure to occur. Why is it so hard to patch things up? Who should make the first move? This 96-page book on reconciliation tackles how to forgive the “unforgivable,” how to move past the hurt, and how to restore relationships by restoring trust.
What is Reconciliation?
Forgiving someone is not the same as reconciliation.
Unforgiveness is the root of unresolved conflict.
Reconciliation is a restored relationship based on restored trust.
Even when there are valid reasons to feel hurt and even when the other person is undeserving, the spirit of reconciliation reflects the heart of God. With God there is no relationship that cannot be restored. Bible stories (David, Joseph and his brothers, Abigail, and Jesus) show God’s heart and desire for reconciliation and forgiveness.
Reconciliation gives helpful relationship advice on reconciliation and how to heal broken relationships. Steps to reconciliation include preparing our heart, forgiving others, showing love, reflecting the character of Christ, entering into His peace, and seeking mediation if needed. This helpful, easy-to-understand mini-book will help you prepare your heart to resolve differences and it shows that the road to reconciliation―although difficult―is possible with God.
Look for more titles in the Hope for the Heart series. These mini-books are for people who seek freedom from codependency, anger, conflict, verbal and emotional abuse, depression, or other problems.

Excellent and helpful book
Our Staff team has been reading this book together and has found it so helpful. It's great at defining what a team leader is and isn't and what they should be doing. It's been great for us as area leaders to read it in order to help our team leaders understand their role. I'd like to give one to everyone in my ministry teams so that everyone, not just the team leader, understands the role. I've also loved that it is written by someone in an Australian church so we don't need to translate it to what it might look like for us in Australia.
The Team Leader's Handbook – How to help Christians serve Jesus together
Henry Trewren
Excellent book for pastors
A convincing book on the need to preach the whole counsel of God. Teaching Scripture and proclaiming Christ through all of Scripture to the church week by week is good and right. Andrew and Tim recognise that God has given us a book filled with various genres and different human authors yet inspired by the Holy Spirit. Every pastor needs to equip God's children to understand God through his inspired Word, to enjoy God and eager to know him. By God's grace this will bring about motivation to speak of Jesus and his good news to all people, to praise God for his glorious grace.
Tim and Andrew advocate for a 10 year preaching plan or more to consider what parts of the Bible are covered so that the church is learning from all of Scripture, shaped by God's Word not a preacher's preference.
I'm keen to implement what Andrew and Tim suggest and I reckon what they describe will mean more people are keen to serve Jesus, know him and love him with all their heart.

After many games you won't get board because you can be quite strategic in the game too!
