Growing Together!

The one-anothers of Scripture were never intended to serve as a collection of quotable quotes. Nor do they present a one-hundred-step plan to vibrant church life. But that’s often what we’re left with if our familiarity prevents us from wrestling with what the apostles meant by them. They are commands. They are meant to be obeyed within the context of vulnerable, growing, trusting relationships within the local church context.
