Every relationship (whether it is with one other person or a large group of people)requires a lot of work to foster its growth. That growth comes as the fruit of the work, and the work necessarily entails getting to know one another through talking, spending time together, discovering the similarities and the differences everyone has. The more we come to know one another, the more the (I like the way you termed it) "intentional forgiveness" is needed, and it is needed to be actively sought after and to be truly given. Without it we are not being vessels of mercy and grace, but are living as earthen pots full of self and sin. It is my experience that being in "community" with others is necessary on many levels. Being with like-minded Christians feeds me, as I am blessed to minister to them/with them and as I am ministered to by them; it recharges me, encourages me, strengthens me, sharpens me, equips me. Such unity is built on ,seasons of laughing and crying together - and extensively on forgiveness, His and ours to one another. I look forward to reading more of your post. Blessings, Cg Adam,
