Tough Love:  Scripture From and Commentary On Matthew 18:15-20

By holding discipline and grace in their proper tension (with a greater but not imbalanced emphasis on grace), Matthew summons the church to practice tough love.

Matthew's "summons" of the church is as relative today as it was back in the time of Jesus - and Christians today must daily seek to allow the Holy Spirit to show us the proper balance of discipline and grace as we strive to love God with our whole heart and to love others as ourselves.
