David,
I agree that many Christians feel apprehensive when listening to or discussing with believers from other traditions. In the future, I hope this is something that Christians can collectively overcome. Beauty and wisdom are not limited to one denomination or tradition. There are practices and valuable insights that can be gained from all Christian traditions Actively applying the steps like the ones mentioned in this thread is a great way to encourage believers to be more unified and appreciative of one another as God intended it to be.
