What happens when we approach disagreement not as a problem to solve but as an opportunity to practice Christian virtue?  In this book James Calvin Davis reclaims the biblical concept of forbearance to develop a theological ethic for faithful disagreement. Pointing to Ephesians and Colossians, in which Paul challenged his readers to \"bear with each other\" in spite of differences, Davis draws out a theologically grounded practice in which Christians work hard to maintain unity while still taking seriously matters on which they disagree.  The practice of forbearance, Davis argues, offers Christians a dignified, graceful, and constructive way to deal with conflict. Forbearance can also strengthen the church's public witness, offering an antidote to the pervasive divisiveness present in contemporary culture.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"William B Eerdmans Publishing Co","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45394747621455,"sku":"00000_00000_00000_00000","price":1050.0,"currency_code":"TWD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/kinokuniya.com.tw\/products\/9780802875105","provider":"Books Kinokuniya Taiwan","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
