It requires new ways of thinking and interpreting the world. When conflict arises, as it often does, the issues become even more confusing. Without a good understanding of how different cultures handle conflict, our best intentions may only make matters worse.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith a particular focus on Asian and Hispanic cultures (at home and around the world) and on African culture, Duane Elmer walks readers through various types of conflict and shows how they can be handled effectively and appropriately. Elmer gives numerous stories and examples from his experience and from others' to show how handling conflict well builds solid relationships. With an eye out for biblical principles, he looks at a variety of sticky questions in Scripture. This is a book not just of theory but of practical models of conflict resolution.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePastors, evangelists, business people, missionaries, students--anyone who wants tocommunicate more effectively with neighbors and colleagues--will find this book immensely helpful.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBack Jacket\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003ePastors, evangelists, businesspeople, missionaries, students- anyone who wants to communicate more effectively with neighbors and colleagues- will find this book immensely helpful.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDuane H.
