I think some of this happens naturally in relationships, and with other Christians; Ruben and I talk (well, in this area I talk more than Ruben - ) about struggles; and it's natural also to tell him if I don't think a particular approach to a problem I have is working or if it seems something else might help more. It's natural with Christian friends to speak about various ways in which God has helped us, and to not keep silent about His deliverances any more than about various problems when we need prayer. All of this helps us to help each other, though I don't think there is a conscious aim to train each other in that. I think more often the conscious aim is to help one another, and it becomes natural in that environment to ask for prayer, etc., and to speak more freely about our own problems.

After two days, he will revive us; on the third day he will raise us up, that we may live before him.
Let us know; let us press on to know the LORD; his going out is sure as the dawn; he will come to us as the showers, as the spring rains that water the earth.
