## Resource

Getting angry happens in an instant. But the consequences of anger can last a lifetime. So how do we handle anger and conflict well? How can we stop a fight before it happens? In this message, Pastor Justin looks at Joshua 22 and what happens when we confuse assumptions for discernment. We see something, think we know why it happened, and react before we hear the other side. Instead, we can learn to stop before we send the text, make the accusation, or start the confrontation. Because just like the Israelites, what we know isn't all there is to know!
