C&AM had seen me to resolve marital infidelity years ago, which has been healed. Since then, AM had a problem and life-threatening pregnancy (preeclampsia), a healthy birth (boy) and an attempt to adopt a teenage girl (which went poorly and she ran away and made false accusations about 'dad' - since resolved legally, but the pain remains. AM is pregnant again and they both seek counsel as she has more difficulties (high BP). They both work high stress jobs and have learned to support teach other well and manage their stress loads (both also have challenging dynamics with their parents (both divorced and remarried). They are growing in their faith together through the challenges they face and are responsive to God and plugged in to a church family.

KW&BS presented for relational reconciliation. They are both divorced with children for their first marriages and have struggled to resolve their allegiances to each other and their (his/BS's) children. BS has a history of co-dependency with his children and competition with his ex who abandoned the family. KW has a history of trauma stemming from childhood which rears its head when they are in conflict (she attacks and he avoids). We worked through much of these issues and they married. They are still battling patterns and dynamics, but KW is actively working on it (BS is still often avoidant). They are both engaged in the Word and church.

A&AS presented to mediate their divorce which husband desired and wife initially did not. They have 2 children together and A (husband) has 2 from previous relationships. They have responded to the Word and Spirit and become peaceful and cooperative with each other, but are not amendable to reconciliation. We are in the final stages, having successfully worked through the custody plan and most of the financial separation agreement. They are reviewing the first draft and we will meet to deal with any corrections and some remaining details next week. I have a co-conciliator.

P&NN presented for marital reconciliation (they have been separated for years with adult children, and we discovered the PN actually divorced his wife - NN while separated in a different jurisdiction). Both seemed open at first, but PN has stalled doing his homework and, after his father's recent passing, gone silent. He has responded after prompts that he will reengage, but has not. We (my co-conciliator and I) are determining whether to keep the case open or terminate.

This is a reopening of a coaching case with TE. she has 3 adult step-children who have teamed to oppose her and their father - making demands and shunning both. Dad has a long history of enabling and is making efforts to change his ways for the children's sake, but their opposition is strong. He is somewhat depressed and has turned to drinking to soothe himself. TE is working to remember who she is in Christ and not succumb to the hurtful, manipulative words and behaviors that are employed against her. Her faith is strong, but she comes form a significant trauma background and she benefits form encouragement in the Word.

J&BS presented seeking to resolve longstanding marital issues, brought to a head by B (husband) hiding and lying about an ongoing (no-sexual, distant /text/ relationship with a childhood girlfriend). He has seen it as infrequent, largely political banter; while J feels betrayed, more by the perpetual lying about the relationship than the actual relationship. They early on divided roles in the marriage (J raised the children and B provided for the family. B was never content with that but felt minimized and bulldozed by J. We have been working on perspective taking and developing empathy and forgiveness. Both are carrying anger and resentment but in different ways: B is avoidant and passive-aggressive and J is aggressive. They both love each other, but need to look to the other's interest, not exclusively their own. Neither has a significant trauma history, but J's loss of her mother to cancer when she was 4y/o has her insecure in close relationships. They have not been attending church which was recommended. I'm praying and watching for the Spirit to open and move their hearts.

JD continues to benefit from semi-regular coaching as he negotiates life challenges. His wife has experienced a depressive episode and his parents health has continued to decline. His 5 children remain a challenge, with their son experiencing an autoimmune vasculitis and one of their daughters experiencing precocious puberty (9y/o). Despite these challenges and a raft of flus and colds, the marriage has repaired and they remain strong with and for one another.

A professional women with a high profile public role reached out for help in early 2023 as she was dissatisfied with her marriage and was having an emotional affair with another man. She does not attend church and hasn't done all of her adult life yet the Holy Spirit is on the move and she wants to obey God and grow in her relationship with Jesus. She contacts me regularly for me to pray for her and guide her in her very demanding work and life. I would estimate that in 2024 more than 6 hours of our time together was for coaching in respect of her marriage and conflict with a colleague in her workplace.

Since 2020 I have been helping a couple with severe conflict in their marriage. the wife is likely a sufferer of borderline personality disorder but a brave lover of Jesus who has grown spiritually during this time. I sometimes meet with them together and sometimes just with the wife. During 2024 I met with the wife for just 2.5 hours as she is doing so much better and has been able to join a church and a small group bible study group. She reaches out to talk when the conflict with her husband is severe.

Husband left his wife and their jointly run business to care for his ailing mother 1,500klms away. His wife felt abandoned. She was also left to run their tyre repair business without the labour of her husband or his support. There was little communication between them. He had always been an angry man and in his sixties was becoming harder to live with his wife reported. She requested mediation but he would not agree. I provided conflict coaching to the wife for about 8 hours over a period of months and one session with her husband in which he agreed to work with me towards me facilitating a conversation but his fear and lack of privacy in his parents home got in the way. However, they were able to improve their communication and the wife visited her husband on several occasions. The wife contacts me when she feels the need for help in navigating their marriage.

Throughout the year I did conflict coaching with individuals: marriage and church cases.

I just started this family mediation case. The main issues are among a mother, her oldest daughter, and her husband, the son in-law, although the whole family of 5 is affected by the conflict. So far, I have only done pre-mediation coaching. There are a lot of issues, including trauma and alcohol addiction within the family, which are affecting all relationships. Mother and son in-law had a falling out with the result of him forbidding her to be with the grandkids, which is very hard for her. At the moment, she is only willing to talk with her daughter, but not with the son in-law. I might have to meet with only the mother and daughter first to resolve their issues, of which many stem from the past and their very dysfunctional home. However, I will definitely work towards getting all the affected parties together (mother, daughter, and son in-law) for a mediation. The issues that the mother has with the the son in-law is mainly that he puts himself in a position of authority that he doesn't have, over her and the whole family. The father, who is the alcoholic and the cause of a lot of the past trauma, is not so much in the picture any more. I am open to include the other sister and the father in further discussions, should the need arise.

I have been coaching an elderly couple to help them navigate a conflict that has arisen within their daughter's family. The couple are Christians, but their daughter plus husband and two teenage children are not. They all live on the same property, so have a lot of interaction with each other. The main conflict is between the older son (18) and his mom, although the relationship to his dad is also not a good one. A few years ago, the dad was unfaithful and the parents separated. Then, after 4 years, the mom let dad move back in with them. Since then, the son has become more and more hostile towards his parents, but especially towards his mom. As grandparents, the elderly couple have always been very involved in the children's lives and have been taking care of the grandkids, especially during the parents separation. A while ago, their grandson moved in with them and they seem to have his trust. I have been working with them towards helping their daughter and son in-law to see how they as parents have hurt their children in this whole process. My goal is to eventually bring the whole family together to have an open and honest conversation so that all the issues can be understood and dealt with. I believe trust has been severely broken (especially for the children) and that needs to be acknowledged. This will hopefully help the relationship to be restored, or at least get this process started.

This is an ongoing marriage mediation, initiated by the wife. Her issues are mainly neglect, non-communication, and a suspected adulterous relationship by the husband. He denies all these allegations, saying that his wife is mentally unstable. It turned out that the woman has been on psychotics for many years and also tried to commit suicide a number of times. She is in psychiatric care right now, so we had to stop our meetings. It is unsure at this point, whether we will be able to continue with the mediation because of the woman's mental health situation. Our last meeting was on October 7, 2024.

I have been coaching a young woman who is in a conflict with her pastor. The conflict was brought on through some misunderstandings with the result of the pastor avoiding and even openly opposing the woman, who always had a ministry in the church. (I know this pastor personally and I suspect that he felt threatened by her.) Since then, no attempt to explain herself or show of love and respect for him and his position as pastor seemed to help. Only recently, he completely changed his attitude toward her and even gave his ok for her to lead her ministry again (which he resisted in the past). He still hasn't talked with her to address the issues, but at least now there is an open door again for further communication. PTL! :)

I have been doing ongoing conflict coaching for many years now among my three siblings, who are all in conflict with each other. I have done a mediation for them a few years ago with a partially satisfying outcome. In the last year, great progress has been made among my two brothers, who don't know the Lord. Right now, my focus is to help them to resolve their issues from their childhood. An added difficulty is that they live in another country and I don't see them very often. I do have phone conversations with them.

We did two separate weekend site visits to the church in OH. I don't know if they are satisfied or not... I get the sense they are still highly conflicted and not yet at peace.

Parties were employees at a Christian organization and were unable to work together due to conflict. I did one on one coaching to prepare the parties for mediation.

In mediation parties were able to provide clarity on the miscommunication that lead to the break down in their working relationships. Both parties were able to take ownership of what they did wrong and grant forgiveness to each other. Parties created a plan on how to work together and created a plan on how to biblically address conflict if it happened in the future.

The wife was very tentative about re-establishing personal contact with her husband, as she felt he had dominated their relationship and she didn't feel any love or respect from him. The husband feels "abandoned" by his wife who left him and went "home" to care for her very sick father. After early coaching, the wife has agreed to establish more communication with the husband. The husband has agreed to consider her desire for "arms-length" discussions and begin to communicate his deep love for her in a way acceptable to her rather than simply requesting/demanding that she consider reconciliation. They continue to communicate offline at this point.

Peter Louie and I made two onsite visits to an ethnic church. Some were very responsive and helped. The elder chairman was upset because we didn't fix the problems in the church (being unable to recognize that he was one of the problems!). Others were very teachable and grew/benefited from it. All agreed that our teaching and coaching was excellent. The only discontent was about the outcomes of the mediations that feel short of the expectations of some. We followed process well and loved people well. The mediations revealed some ugliness in the heart such that the church leaders could respond with more clarity, which they have. I'm glad we went.

CW has 3 siblings (one saved). Their mother passed when hit by an ambulance and her siblings chose to sue (CW did not want to and chose to stay separate from that action). Her siblings became angry with her, as did one of her nieces and largely alienated her. We worked on understanding their different expression of the pain of loss; staying completely separate (made difficult because she was exclusive cosigner on her mother's accounts). CW was able to make a strong, gentle appeal and to keep showing up for her siblings and nieces, making apologies for perceived affronts and seeking their good.

Served as part of a GRA team in a church with a large daycare, coming in after an attempted ministry team reconciliation had revealed significant impact of the conflict had spread through the church and community and caused significant polarization which became bigger in a public meeting. A team was then assembled and before our team was on the ground one of the two pastors involved had announced he had taken a call and was getting ready to leave. Our team taught the GaBR seminar and offered coaching for staff, leadership team, and congregation members. Many issues were apparent, some coaching led to further engagement with God's Word, confession and forgiveness was demonstrated by the team, but the remaining staff and leaders struggled with addressing their own responsibilities in the conflict (tending to self-justify instead) without ongoing accountability to the pastor who left. Recommended mediations and final report have not taken place to this point.

2 cases - one in March-24 and one in July 24 both similar in that they were to do with divorced parents where one parent wanted to relocate to a different country or a different city, and wanted to agree how that would work so that both parents maintained their relationships with their children and would co-parent their children in terms of making joint agreed decisions about them.

Served on a GRA team at a church where conflict within extended families was a significant factor in church conflict. Assisted with coaching on first visit, coaching and mediation on second visit, and was asked back for a third visit for coaching and multiple mediations with one party who was involved in conflicts with multiple people. During this third visit this party finally engaged with God's Word, allowing me to walk her through the full GaBR seminar which she had resisted during the prior two visits, and was able to begin reconciling relationships through confession and forgiveness.

Actually an investigation. There was an allegation of their pastor of emotional abuse, power abuse. However, the parties wanted to reconcile and there was hope that it was an isolated situation, a misunderstanding or correctable with reconciliation and coaching or training. Turned out to be systemic and historical. After initial; interviews the staff asked to talk with us again using their personal emails and zooming from home. The investigation widened and it was determined that there was no path back for the pastor that could be kind or safe for the staff, leaders or members of the church.

Assisted another mediator in a church conflict between two pastors which had also been impacting the staff. The conflict was years in the making, yet the pastors had kept this deeply emotional conflict from impacting the broader congregation for the most part such that it had primarily impacted them and the staff. After a day of coaching and 2 days of mediation they were able to reconcile through confession and forgiveness with each other and with multiple staff members.

Assisted all parties with extensive coaching and partial mediation. Mediation was terminated after one couple left employment and took jobs in another state. The departing couple decided since the employment relationship had terminated, they were not obligated to finish mediation. They declined an invitation to debrief with the Mediators. Mediators did debrief the remaining couple and coached Next Steps.

A conflict between two women at a church. Leslie served in women's ministry at her church and stepped in over many years to reach out to and to help another woman in need at her church. One day that other woman publicly declared that she had been hurt by her church since no one had reached out to her. Leslie was hurt and angry about how this other woman had accused Leslie publicly of not supporting her. I coached Leslie through the anger, hurt, and unforgiveness that she was holding against this other woman. After several coaching sessions, Leslie was able to see her idols and was able to forgive the other woman.

Couple desiring separation agreement. Indicated they wanted to separate in order to gain space and heal so that they could potentially reconcile. She claimed emotional abuse and wanted it defined and stated. Also involved though was her physical abuse and emotionally damaging behavior. I failed to find a way to effectively help them, especially her to prepare, negotiate respectfully or equitably, follow guidelines, etc. I stopped working with them. They had the basics of the agreement they needed. I advised them to take it to church leadership or lawyer or another conciliator and agree and set up accountability.

Provided ongoing coaching to a man who was trying to navigate the settling of his parents estate among his siblings. He and his older brothers were co-trustees of the trust. The parents passed before officially making changes to the trust that they had voiced to the family they wanted changed. The older brother was taking advantage of the trust as written even though his parents had expressed to all of their children their desire to change it. The brother I was coaching came to the decision to divide what had been left to him with his other siblings to be able to settle. He recognized that his brother did not know Christ and hoped this would be a way of witnessing to him.

TC has worked through a difficult divorce and child custody agreement. He was disappointed with the outcome and made a sacrificial move to accommodate his ex-wife as she moved out of the area with primary custody of their 2 sons - moved to be near the boys and continue co-parenting. He expressed a desire to continue coaching, but - other than texted prayer requests and updates, becoming less frequent - he has not sked for a meeting since March 2024. I am concluding the case is closed, but remain open to helping him should he reengage.

Provided conflict coaching to the pastor and elders of a church in Missouri concerning a former congregant who had rejected the churches attempt to restore him through the process of "church discipline." The church recognized that they had not approached the congregant in ways that were most helpful. However, the reason for the discipline was warranted according to the church leadership. They desired to reach out to the individual to reconcile and encourage him to return to the church and engage in the restoration process. The leaders were able to achieve some level of reconciliation with the congregant. While the congregant chose not to return, he did engage with another local church that was aware of his spiritual struggles that were willing to help disciple him.
