The church had been using the geocentric Aristotelian theory for many decades and the heliocentric theory challenged what they believed to be a system that worked in tandem with scripture. Galileo staunchly believed in the heliocentric theory so he struck a deal with Pope Urban VIII. Galileo could discuss heliocentric theory, but only so long at it was a hypothetical discussion. When Galileo wrote Dialogue on the Two Chief World Systems, not only was it apparent that he was not discussing hypothetically, but he made the Pope look stupid. Galileo was put on trial for his actions, because he recanted what he said and basically apologized, he was put on house arrest for the rest of his life. He was lucky because Giorgio Bruno was burned at the stake for challenging the dominant beliefs of the church.

How did Galileo's work come into conflict with the church and how was the that conflict resolved?

Galileo's work supporting the heliocentric model challenged the geocentric views held by the Catholic Church. The Church saw his ideas as heretical and forced him to recant his views under threat of excommunication. The conflict was resolved centuries later in 1992 when the Catholic Church formally acknowledged that Galileo was right and that the Church's judgment against him was a mistake.
