Conflict Management in Christian Marriage: A Case Study of Ethiopian Evangelical Churches
Abstract
Ashenafi Woldemichael Woime and Wondwosen Dawit
This study examines marital conflict resolution in Ethiopian Evangelical contexts. Interviews and surveys revealed prevalent conflicts: communication (47.5%), financial (58.8%), and parenting disagreements (32.5%). Despite biblical principles (forgiveness, church counsel), couples struggled with domestic violence and chronic dissatisfaction. Cultural factors hindered resolution. Findings stress integrating enhanced pastoral counseling and practical training with biblical teachings for effective conflict management.
