It is hard to live in relationship with others -- it requires "Christ who alone binds us together." Bonhoeffer's realistic analysis of how to live in community helped me a lot when I was in seminary, disillusioned because my fantasy of Christian community wasn't coming true. Much (all?)of what he says applies equally to the church or family life. This is practical theology -- being Christ's changes how we live, particularly in relationships (the hardest area!).
