This is what I like from the chapter.
- Be realistic in your expectations.
"Longing for the ideal while criticizing the real is evidence of immaturity. On the other hand, settling for the real without striving for the ideal is complacency. Maturity is living with the tension. Other believers WILL disappoint you and let you down, but that's no excuse to stop fellowshiping with them. They are your family, even when they don't act like it, and you can't just walk out on them. Reconciliation, not running away, is the road to stronger character and deeper fellowship."
How true!
