Many times, obedience is hard. Taking steps of faith will feel exponentially harder if we try to go it alone. We all need supportive, encouraging allies who understand our struggle, will point us to Christ, and, when necessary, speak hard truths.
In order to develop relationships to the depth our souls need, we’ll have to risk being vulnerable. But the strength and courage we’ll receive in return will far outweigh the risks.

3. Healthy relationships speak truth in love. How easy or difficult is it for you to receive constructive feedback?
4. When has someone you love challenged you to grow in an area, and how did you respond?

7. When has a step of faith forced you to rely on someone else? What was the result, relationally?
