Moving From Covert Duplicity to Overt Intimacy

In our society and social groups, it has always been the widely accepted norm to be expressive our physical needs with others but when it comes to our struggles and internal world, why do we find it so difficult to share? Many of us live our lives according to a script - resulting in an act that refrains us from an honest account of our vulnerable emotional needs. But what could it look like to disavow the duplicitous behaviors in our relationships and subscribed to vulnerability as a value? There is a rich life in Christ and the reward of real relationships that are in store behind the door of vulnerability and intimacy.
