I was so looking forward to this title. I stopped reading after Chapter 3, because I disagree with a specific illustration. Who knows maybe, I missed the whole message of the book.

We all face confrontation. We do NOT all face confrontation well. Some of us even go out of our way to create confrontation. This book reads like a faith-based guide to confrontation. How to have healthy confrontation, when to start that confrontational conversation, and when to avoid confrontation all together.
I like this book so much because it is a wonderful mix of Biblical truth and raw personal life details. Donehey shares so many personal stories throughout this book to better demonstrate Biblical truth in daily life. I especially loved the many references to music and band life within this book.

This book does contain a lot of wonderful advice and truth, but what really spoke to me is that my argument needs to come from a place of God's love for the person I'm arguing with. I need to not focus on "winning" but to focus on loving the person I disagree with in a way that is pleasing to God.

While I have shared what spoke to me, there's plenty of truth in this book to find. I highly suggest picking it up and reading it. Even if you think you're the nonconfrontational type, this book is for you. It truly has something in it for everyone, even if what speaks most to you isn't what spoke most to me.

I'm happy to have received this book for free from NetGalley in exchange for this honest review.
