Chapter 4- Is this really worth fighting over?

This chapter really focused on overlooking offenses. Sometimes things are so minor they do not need to be argued about. So here is his summary:
"There are many conflicts that require a lot of time and effort to resolve. But there are far more that can be resolved simply by overlooking minor offenses or relinguishing rights for the sake of God's kingdom. Terefore, before focusing on your rights, take a careful look at your responsibilities. Before you go to remove the speck from your brothers eye, ask yourself, "Is this really worth fighting over?""
This makes me think of dealing with our children, choose your battles with them, choose your battles with others. Well I will write more in a couple more days, about this book.
