One-anothering

by David L. Miller (Contributor)

Jesus told us that the greatest commandment is to love God with all of our heart, soul, strength and mind and the second greatest is to love our neighbor as ourselves. We often emphasize the vertical relationship with God, while the horizontal relationships with our neighbors are neglected. Simon Schrock has written a gentle reminder to each of us about our duty to our fellow man. At one time or another, everyone needs a helping hand, an encouraging pat on the back, or simply someone to listen. One Anothering prompts us to be genuine and loving in our relationships with Christ as our example. We depend on each other and will continue to rely upon togetherness and the nurtured relationships of those we know and love in the future. This book can enrich the quality of our experience with others at home, at work, and at worship. One Anothering is an intensely practical approach to loving our neighbor, written by someone who lives by what he says and easily communicates this great need to all of us.

[Zack · Rating 3 out of 5]

Nice book with a lot of interesting old-fashioned illustrations/examples. I really enjoyed the straightforward, simple (direct/blunt) approach to giving advice/exhortations. Rooted in Scripture, too. Nothing innovative, stylistically, but that's okay. There are a couple moments in the books that really stood out to me as particularly valuable and well said, but overall this is a pretty average or "just above-average" kind of book, thus 3/5. I would recommend it to others, however, if they happened to be looking for a solid little (but not too heavy, theologically or "therapeutic") book on how Christians ought to treat one another.

This book was very encouraging, giving great examples of why we must love people even when it is hard to. Simon Schrock gives advice on how to deal with various situations with complete scriptural backing. He tells us how to uplift others and how to deal with hard people.

I find this challenging (in a very good sense) and hope that living out "One Anothering" by putting it into practice will get only easier for me, because it is hard! I know it will be worth it though.
