In Episode 116 of Faith, Family, & Fulfillment, Chris and Suzanne Vester tackle one of the most important realities of every relationship: conflict is inevitable—but destruction is not. Healthy conflict has the power to refine, strengthen, and deepen connection when it’s approached with humility, communication, and a shared desire to understand rather than win.
