This chapter was about producing a loving Christian community. To make a loving cultivating community requires honesty. We should "speak the truth in love". Sometimes we will have to confront our loved ones who are struggling with sin because we care where their soul will end up. Be open about problems or even struggles you are facing, so that we can get through them together. Cultivating community takes humility- we should avoid being prideful and stubborn. We should be humble, and think more of others, and admit we need help when we do. Cultivating community takes courtesy- respect differences and be considerate of other's feelings. Sometimes God places difficult people in our midst to teach us patience and respect, even when we don't want to. Cultivating community takes frequency. Contact others on a regular basis, providing encouragement and support, sharing feelings, having honesty, humility, and courtesy. These characteristics help to build a strong loving community. [u]
