Work, family, friendships, church - are you drawn more to independence or interdependence? What makes it possible for you to put aside your own interests for the sake of the group? To define healthy boundaries? Examples in church life abound: pledging money, committing to serve in a regular role, showing up for worship when you'd rather sleep in, becoming a sign-on-the-dotted-line member. Where in your life are you wrestling between the freedom of independence and the community of interdependence?
