Podcasters Kathy Khang and Matt Mikalatos have long engaged in conversations focusing on today's culture and its rocky connections to Christianity. In this audiobook, their warm voices outline the harsh realities dividing today's Christian communities--infighting, hatred, and factionalism, among them. Bringing harmony to this discord, Khang and Mikalatos present a method to help listeners disagree with compassion and grace. In a conversational style, they lay out Saint Paul's fruits of the Spirit, found in Galatians 5:22-26: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, generosity, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. In each chapter, their sincere tones and unhurried pacing offer contemporary ways to "be guided by the Spirit," avoiding the conceit, competition, and envy that plagued the people of Paul's day, as well as people today.

What does it look like to love someone you disagree with?
Fighting, disagreements, hatred, dissension, and silence. These things seem common in the wider Christian community today. Politics, theology, and even personal preference create seemingly insurmountable rifts. It's hard not to see ourselves as “at war” with each other.
We're not doomed to be stuck here, though. There is a twofold path out of this destructive war, out of seeing our brothers and sisters as enemies-and into a spacious place of loving each other even as we disagree.
In Loving Disagreement, Kathy Khang and Matt Mikalatos bring unique insight into how the fruit of the Spirit informs our ability to engage in profound difference and conflict with love. As followers of Jesus are planted in the Holy Spirit, the Spirit grows and bears good things in our lives-and relationships and communities are changed.
