    About this ebook

    In a culture that promotes isolation and autonomy, this book reveals life-changing methods for creating healthy relationships and authentic community. Readers learn to apply New Testament principles that capture the essence of Jesus' teachings about effectively caring, serving, and loving one another.
    Beginning with God's simple command to "Love one another," this book shows how to:

    * develop deep, genuine friendships
    * model to others a relationship with Jesus
    * create meaningful interaction with strangers
    * avoid the pitfalls of judging others
    * show people love, acceptance, kindness, and respect

    Complete with discussion questions, this book is appropriate for both individuals and church groups. It is a must for all Christians who wish to practice being the church rather than merely attending one.

      A thought-provoking book about Christian community, in the best sense. Starting with the command to love one another, the authors look at several 'one another' verses from the New Testament. They suggest what they might have meant, and how they can be applied today.

      I was particularly taken with their interpretation of the idea of submitting to one another, which was rather different from standard evangelical teaching, yet seemed much more akin to what would have been meant.

      Not sure how far I will put this into practise, but it would be very encouraging to see more real community within the Christian church. I shall certainly be reading this again in future.

      Four and a half stars, really.
