The Art of Disagreeing: How to Keep Calm and Stay Friends in Hard Conversations -- Gavin Ortlund, Paperback

In this positive and practical book, Gavin Ortlund looks to the Scriptures to discover a way in which to disagree with others that leads to greater understanding, peace and love--and that shows a watching world something of Jesus.

This is a much-needed message in a society that is losing the ability to disagree well. Whether over politics, religion, culture, or the more everyday issues of normal life, points of view tend to be held with a polarizing intensity. Too often we view disagreements as must-win contests or we simply do our best to avoid them altogether.

Looking to Jesus' example of courage and kindness, readers will be given a framework for engaging in intense disagreements with a love that furthers relationships instead of hindering them.

So, whether you tend to fight or flee, learn how to keep calm and stay friends--even when you disagree.
