ISSUE No. 72 | August 2026
WELCOME
If you’re new to CULTIVARE we welcome you! CULTIVARE is a monthly field guide for life and faith, brought to you by TEND. Each month we explore a specific “field” – a topic or theme through which we seek to cultivate contemplation, engagement, and deeper understanding. Our guiding questions are:
What are you cultivating in your life?
What fruit do you want your life to bear?
Each issue of CULTIVARE is structured into three parts:
Cultivate: Examines a specific “Field” or facet of life and offers questions to unearth and challenge our held perspective; along with concise kernels of truth which we call “Seeds.”
Irrigate: Explores the ways we nurture our understanding, which varies from individual to individual. We offer six means of irrigation: Art, Poetry, Profile, Film, Essay, and Books.
Germinate: Encourages practical ways to engage in becoming more fruitful and free in our lives.
Our name, CULTIVARE, in Spanish means “I will cultivate.” We hope each issue of our field guide will encourage you to do just that – cultivate new thoughts, actions, faith, hope, and fruitful living. We invite you to dig in and DIG DEEP!
FIELD
For we are partners working together for God, and you are God's field.
(I Corinthians 3:9)
Our theme this month is COMMUNITY. Most of us have an intuitive sense of what the word community means, but the first three definitions in the New Oxford Dictionary offer a rich starting point:
a. A group of people living in the same place or sharing a particular characteristic.
b. A feeling of fellowship with others that arises from shared attitudes, interests, and goals.
c. A group of interdependent organisms of different species living and growing together.
Last month we explored the theme of SOLITUDE—the power and promise of spending time alone with God and with our own souls. This month we turn our attention to the equally profound gift of COMMUNITY.
One of Scripture's most familiar verses is Genesis 2:18, where God declares, “It is not good that the man should be alone” (KJV). While spoken in a particular context, the truth extends far beyond Adam. It applies to all humanity. We were not created to live in isolation.
Yet our culture often celebrates individualism. We admire self-reliance, independence, and the ability to forge our own path without depending on anyone else. While there is value in personal responsibility, Scripture reminds us that independence is not the highest ideal. God's design for human flourishing has always included one another.
If we paraphrase God’s words as, “It is not good for human beings to be alone,” we begin to see the far-reaching implications of that truth. It is not good to learn alone, to struggle alone, to grieve alone, or even to celebrate alone. We were created for relationship—with God and with one another. Community shapes us, strengthens us, and often becomes the means through which God nurtures, corrects, and encourages us.
In this issue, we are delighted to feature a profile of Cori Close, head coach of the UCLA women’s basketball team, whose Christian faith has shaped a leadership philosophy that prizes community over individual achievement. We also include an encouraging essay from Thérèse of Lisieux, who offers both wisdom and gentle humor as she reflects on the challenges and blessings of “Getting Along in Community.” Our featured artists this month are the remarkable Quilters of Gee’s Bend, whose beautiful work is itself a testament to generations of shared life, creativity, and mutual support.
One of the most insightful reflections on community comes from Elizabeth O’Connor, whom we featured in our Journey Inward issue (#65). She writes:
There is no realization of the self-potential without community and no community
without self-denial.
Her words capture an enduring truth: the communities we belong to profoundly shape the people we become. We need one another. We grow together. We discover gifts we could never develop alone, and we find strength that is multiplied through shared life.
The belief that we can truly “go it alone” is a compelling illusion, but an illusion nonetheless. God’s invitation is far better. He calls us into relationships where we are known, challenged, supported, and loved.
May this month’s issue of Cultivare encourage you to embrace God's wisdom that “it is not good to be alone.” And may He give each of us the courage to seek, build, and nurture the kinds of communities where faith deepens, hope grows, and love is lived together. (DG)

Eliashib the high priest and his fellow priests went to work and rebuilt the Sheep Gate…The men of Jericho built the adjoining section, and Zakkur son of Imri built next to them…Uzziel son of Harhaiah, one of the goldsmiths, repaired the next section; and Hananiah, one of the perfume-makers, made repairs next to that…Shallum son of Hallohesh, ruler of a half-district of Jerusalem, repaired the next section with the help of his daughters. (Nehemiah 3: 1, 2, 8, 12 NIV)
A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another; as I have loved you, that you also love one another. By this all will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another. (John 13:34-35 NKJV)
They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer…They sold property and possessions to give to anyone who had need.
(Acts 2:42, 45 NIV)
For by the grace given me I say to every one of you: Do not think of yourself more highly than you ought, but rather think of yourself with sober judgment, in accordance with the faith God has distributed to each of you. For just as each of us has one body with many members, and these members do not all have the same function, so in Christ we, though many, form one body, and each member belongs to all the others. (Romans 12: 3-5 NIV)

SEEDS
A handful of quotes to contemplate and cultivate into your life
The aim of God in history is the creation of an all-inclusive community of loving persons, with Himself included in that community as its prime sustainer and most glorious inhabitant. (Dallas Willard)
Let him who cannot be alone beware of community…Let him who is not in community beware of being alone…Each by itself has profound pitfalls and perils. One who wants fellowship without solitude plunges into the void of words and feelings, and one who seeks solitude without fellowship perishes in the abyss of vanity, self-infatuation, and despair. (Dietrich Bonhoeffer)
It would seem that, quite possibly, the ultimate measure of health in any community might well reside in our ability to stand in awe at what folks have to carry rather than in judgment at how they carry it. (Gregory Boyle)
It is a beautiful thing when folks in poverty are no longer just a missions project but become genuine friends and family with whom we laugh, cry, dream, and struggle. One of the verses I have grown to love is the one where Jesus is preparing to leave the disciples and says, “I no longer call you servants…Instead, I have called you friends” (John 15:15).
Servanthood is a fine place to begin, but gradually we move toward mutual love, genuine relationships. Someday, perhaps we can even say those words that Ruth said to Naomi after years of partnership: “Where you go I will go, and where you stay I will stay. Your people will be my people and your God my God. Where you die I will die, and there I will be buried” (Ruth 1:16-17). (Shane Claiborne)
The greatness of a community is most accurately measured by the compassionate actions of its members. (Coretta Scott King)
However, community is first of all a quality of the heart. It grows from the spiritual knowledge that we are alive not for ourselves but for one another. Community is the fruit of our capacity to make the interests of others more important than our own. The question, therefore, is not “How can we make community?” but, “How can we develop and nurture giving hearts?” (Henri Nouwen)
“Independence”… middle-class blasphemy. We are all dependent on one another, every soul of us on earth. (George Bernard Shaw)
Community is a sign that love is possible in a materialistic world where people so often either ignore or fight each other. It is a sign that we don't need a lot of money to be happy—in fact, the opposite. (Jean Vanier)
ART
Artist of the Month
The Quilters of Gee’s Bend
By Bonnie Fearer
Along a wide bend in the Alabama River, lies a small town called Gee’s Bend, Alabama. Surrounded by water on three sides, it has always been isolated, yet this tiny spot on the map has produced some of the most beautiful historical art the United States has ever produced.
Most of the residents here trace their lineage back to slaves and shareholders of the Pettway cotton plantation. In the early 19th century, many of the women slaves began to make quilts—not as conscious art form, but out of necessity to keep their families warm in the unheated shacks where they lived. However, a certain style emerged from these quilters who used only scraps of recycled materials, mostly cast-off work clothes, fertilizer and flour sacks. Due to the fact that scraps came in a multitude of small shapes and sizes, the quilters adapted an improvisational style—freeform, abstract, and expressive. It’s a style the locals refer to as “my way” designs.
Quilting has always been a communal art form. Once a quilt has been “pieced” (the top with the colored blocks of fabric sewn together), the quilting community gathers in a circle around it where they combine form and function by stitching designs that attach the top, middle and bottom of the quilt together. It is long and slow work and, as such, it is also the seedbed of shared life, laughter, instruction and generational wisdom. Today, there is a resurgence in the popularity of quilting for just this reason; it offers natural community in a world where that’s getting harder to find.
The Gee’s Bend quilters have carried on a continuity of their aesthetic knowledge, skills, and historic artistry as they always have—through gathering together to stitch and tell stories and teach, from one generation to the next. Their quiet practice has produced stunning art that has been noticed worldwide.
In 2015, Gee's Bend quilters Mary Lee Bendolph, Lucy Mingo, and Loretta Pettway were joint recipients of a National Heritage Fellowship awarded by the National Endowment for the Arts, the United States government's highest honor in the folk and traditional arts.[
Since 2022, the annual “Airing of the Quilts Festival,” which features quilt displays, sales, workshops, and guided tours, has attracted thousands of visitors to Gee's Bend.

POETRY
Gate A-4
By Naomi Shihab Nye
Wandering around the Albuquerque Airport Terminal, after learning
my flight had been delayed four hours, I heard an announcement:
“If anyone in the vicinity of Gate A-4 understands any Arabic, please
come to the gate immediately.”
Well—one pauses these days. Gate A-4 was my own gate. I went there.
An older woman in full traditional Palestinian embroidered dress, just
like my grandma wore, was crumpled to the floor, wailing. “Help,”
said the flight agent. “Talk to her. What is her problem? We
told her the flight was going to be late and she did this.”
I stooped to put my arm around the woman and spoke haltingly.
“Shu-dow-a, Shu-bid-uck Habibti? Stani schway, Min fadlick, Shu-bit-
se-wee?” The minute she heard any words she knew, however poorly
used, she stopped crying. She thought the flight had been cancelled
entirely. She needed to be in El Paso for major medical treatment the
next day. I said, “No, we’re fine, you’ll get there, just later, who is
picking you up? Let's call him.”
We called her son, I spoke with him in English. I told him I would
stay with his mother till we got on the plane and ride next to
her. She talked to him. Then we called her other sons just
for the fun of it. Then we called my dad and he and she spoke for a while
in Arabic and found out of course they had ten shared friends. Then I
thought just for the heck of it why not call some Palestinian poets I know
and let them chat with her? This all took up two hours.
She was laughing a lot by then. Telling of her life, patting my knee,
answering questions. She had pulled a sack of homemade mamool
cookies—little powdered sugar crumbly mounds stuffed with dates and
nuts—from her bag—and was offering them to all the women at the gate.
To my amazement, not a single woman declined one. It was like a
sacrament. The traveler from Argentina, the mom from California, the
lovely woman from Laredo—we were all covered with the same powdered
sugar. And smiling. There is no better cookie.
And then the airline broke out free apple juice from huge coolers and two
little girls from our flight ran around serving it and they
were covered with powdered sugar, too. And I noticed my new best friend—
by now we were holding hands—had a potted plant poking out of her bag,
some medicinal thing, with green furry leaves. Such an old country tradi-
tion. Always carry a plant. Always stay rooted to somewhere.
And I looked around that gate of late and weary ones and I thought, This
is the world I want to live in. The shared world. Not a single person in that
gate—once the crying of confusion stopped—seemed apprehensive about
any other person. They took the cookies. I wanted to hug all those other women, too.
This can still happen anywhere. Not everything is lost.
PROFILE
Cori Close
By Lisa Hertzog
Sometimes you, sometimes me, always us.
(Coach Cori Close)
When UCLA women's basketball coach Cori Close led the Bruins to their first NCAA championship in 2026, she didn't begin by talking about trophies or cutting down nets. Instead, in the postgame press conference, she reflected on her calling. “This has been a calling, not a job,” she said. “It’s not about me. It’s about watching these incredible young women be dream chasers, to watch them grow in ways that they will remember...It’s about their work and their habits.”
That perspective shaped the team long before the championship game. Throughout the season, Close consistently pointed attention away from herself and toward her players, coaches, and support staff. Her players did the same, celebrating one another’s contributions rather than their own. The championship was the fruit of a lovingly cultivated community.
In an era of NIL deals, revenue sharing, and the transfer portal that often reward personal success over collective flourishing, Coach Cori has built her program around a different vision. She calls the mission “Uncommon.” “I wanted to find uncommon, courageous women that were willing to make uncommon choices that maybe, possibly could yield an uncommon result,” she said after the championship. “And today it did.”
Those uncommon choices often meant sacrificing individual recognition for the sake of the team. Four of the top six players could have easily been All-Americans elsewhere, had they played on a team that highlighted only them. Instead, they embraced smaller roles so the team could thrive together. Even All-American senior Lauren Betts averaged fewer minutes and took fewer shots than the previous season. Rather than pursuing individual accolades, the players bought into a shared purpose.
As Betts reflected after the championship, “It’s buying into the process...It’s the maturity to be able to come and sacrifice yourself and your ego and be able to put that aside for moments like these.” Her teammate Gabriela Jaquez echoed that spirit: “The joy we have and the love we have for each other has motivated us this season because we want to do it for each other.” Close often summarizes that culture in one simple phrase: “Sometimes you, sometimes me, always us.”
That commitment to community is rooted in Coach Cori’s Christian faith. She often speaks about the “village” of family, mentors, and friends who have encouraged, challenged, and shaped her throughout her life. Growing up in a family deeply involved with Young Life, she saw her parents model a faith lived through intentional community.
One of the most influential members of her village was legendary UCLA coach John Wooden, who mentored Close for fifteen years. Reflecting on his influence, she said, “One of the things he gave me was a sense that you could compete at the highest levels...in a transformational, character-building way.” When asked in the post-game press conference what Wooden would think of the championship, Close responded, “I think Coach Wooden wouldn’t care as much about the championship as he would about staying true to our process....This is a byproduct of what’s happened in their habits, in their love for each other, in committing to a process over a long period of time.”
The community Close cultivates is visible not only in practices and games but also in ordinary acts of service. Players and staff collect recyclable bottles after practices and games, redeem them, and donate the proceeds to charitable causes. Recently, those funds paid for school uniforms and a computer for girls in Tijuana. Small, repeated acts like these reinforce the habit of looking beyond themselves and serving others together.
After more than three decades of coaching and fifteen years leading UCLA, Close reflected on what the championship meant. “For me it's not about the championship; it’s a validation that it can be done differently.” More meaningful than the trophy was demonstrating that a community marked by humility, sacrifice, and love for one another can still thrive at the highest level of competition.
Below are two sources that speak about Close’s influential Christian faith:

Short Films
We feature two short films this month, each showing the power of community
in very different ways. Both are heartwarming and encouraging.
A Child Transforms a Neighborhood
(3 minutes)
If you pass by four-year-old Roman Butzlaff's house in Concord, N.C., he will surely greet you with a wave and a “hey.” But what began as a friendly gesture became a bond that drew together his neighborhood. Roman’s friendliness attracts neighbors to become surrogate grandparents. They say it takes a village to raise a child, and Roman shows us that sometimes, the child creates the village. From CBS Sunday Morning reporter Steve Hartman spotlighting the “family” that Roman built one wave at a time.
Burrow
(2020)
(6 minutes)
The Disney Pixar short film Burrow (2020) was written and directed by Madeline Sharafian. This animated film is about a rabbit who has drawn plans for her own underground home. As she begins to dig, she is interrupted by several other underground neighbors such as a mole and a mouse, who offer help and share their own building plans, which involve being in contact with other animals. The rabbit, wanting to do things on her own and away from others, begins to look for a more solitary spot by digging a very long tunnel. She encounters trouble and learns that she needs neighbors. Available for viewing on Disney+. Watch the trailer here:

Building Bridges:
Religion’s Role in Our Societies
By Eboo Patel
(11 minutes)
Faith communities are profoundly important for our development, formation, and growth. Whatever your religious affiliation, you perhaps recognize that the role of religion in our society is essential and provides a positive influence. However, as citizens of the most diverse country in history, we should be mindful to provide a bridge of cooperation between faiths to avoid identity-based disagreements. Patel offers personal experience and observations to help us celebrate and honor the diverse faith communities that we come from. Watch the entire Ted Talk here:
ESSAY
Getting Along in Community
By Thérèse of Lisieux
This month we include an excerpt from the writings of St. Thérèse of Lisieux. Thérèse was a French nun who died at the young age of 24 and was canonized in the early 20th century. She is known for “the little way,” a spirituality that emphasizes small acts of love instead of pursuit of dramatic miracles.
Many of our offerings in this issue focus our need for community and the good results when we find it. This essay approaches community from a different direction, that of the interior struggle when we are forced to be in community with people who bother us. Thérèse’s frank description of her personal feelings about a fellow nun are at times surprising and funny, while being very human. She highlights that little place inside all of us that squirms in guilt when we find it difficult to love those around us who get on our nerves. She shows us that even nuns face obstacles to community and that running to God in honesty can be an authentic edge of growth.
BOOKS
Each month we recommend a book (or two) focused on our theme
NON-FICTION
Made to Belong:
Five Practices for Cultivating Community in a Disconnected World
By David Kim
Pastor David Kim shares his experiences with loneliness and seeking community as a Korean American immigrant. He delivers compelling research about belonging that includes five practices for developing meaningful relationships. Kim surveyed more than 1,300 Christians and discovered that the number one struggle is loneliness. We crave life-giving relationships and community yet realize they are difficult to find and cultivate. We want to belong, we just don't know how. When we are left to ourselves, Kim says, we naturally drift away from God and others, and we begin to believe the lies of the enemy:
-
You are all alone. No one else feels this way.
-
No one cares about you. How could they?
-
You don't belong anywhere.
Kim combats those lies with the incredible hope found in the Five Practices for Cultivating Community:
-
Priority: Let’s talk about our commitment issues
-
Chemistry: The difference between clique and click
-
Vulnerability: Lowering the wall of shame for connection
-
Empathy: Supporting others well in a self-absorbed world
-
Accountability: The necessary road to Christlikeness
Kim teaches us that true belonging takes intentional effort. Through sound wisdom from the Bible, proven research from the social sciences and his own data, and examples from his pastoral ministry and moving personal anecdotes, Kim shows us that we are uniquely designed by God to belong to one another for our flourishing. We are made to belong—to each other and to Jesus.
FICTION
Jaybar Crow
by Wendell Berry
It is 1932 and Jayber Crow has returned to his native Port William to become the town's barber. Orphaned at age ten, Jayber Crow’s acquaintance with loneliness and want have made him a patient observer of the human animal, in both its goodness and frailty. He began his search as a "pre-ministerial student" at Pigeonville College. There, freedom met with new burdens and a young man needed more than a mirror to find himself. But the beginning of that finding was a short conversation with "Old Grit," his profound professor of New Testament Greek.
"You have been given questions to which you cannot be given answers.
You will have to live them out―perhaps a little at a time."
"And how long is that going to take?"
"I don't know. As long as you live, perhaps."
"That could be a long time."
"I will tell you a further mystery," he said. "It may take longer."
Wendell Berry’s clear-sighted depiction of humanity’s gifts―love and loss, joy and despair―is seen though his intimate knowledge of the Port William community.
CHILDREN’S

4. DIETRICH BONHOEFFER ON COMMUNITY
Richard Foster writes: “In Life Together Bonhoeffer makes crystal clear the fundamental difference between radical Christian fellowship and community based on natural desire. With sadness I have had to recognize that the very way we arrange our lives in America effectively excludes us from life together. To take Bonhoeffer seriously would mean such a total rethinking of the life of faith that the entire socioeconomic structures of our lives would be revolutionize. Life Together is a salty book to dig into if you are tired of ‘sweetness and light for God’s little flock’ and are prepared for ‘costly grace.’” Read an excerpt from the book here: View Now
5. PRAYER FOR COMMUNITY
Heavenly Father,
We thank You for the precious gift of community, knowing that You never intended for us to walk through life alone. You created us to belong—to encourage one another, to bear one another's burdens, and to reflect Your love together.
Open our hearts to form meaningful, life-giving relationships that draw us out of isolation and bring healing to places marked by loneliness. Help us to cultivate a community where grace abounds, where we listen well, speak truth in love, and extend patience, kindness, and compassion to one another.
As we share our joys and struggles, teach us to learn from one another and to grow together in faith. Sharpen our hearts and minds through the encouragement, wisdom, and accountability of those You have placed around us. May every conversation, every act of service, and every shared moment become an opportunity to experience more of Your presence.
Lord, use our life together to shape us into the people You have called us to be. Break down the walls of pride and selfishness within us, replacing them with humility, generosity, and genuine love. Through the beauty of authentic community, reveal more of Your character and deepen our understanding of who You are.
May our fellowship be a testimony of Your goodness, drawing us ever closer to You and inspiring others to experience the hope, joy, and belonging found in Christ.
In Jesus’ name we pray,
AMEN

But blessed is the one who trusts in the Lord,

It does not fear when heat comes;
its leaves are always green.
It has no worries in a year of drought
and never fails to bear fruit.
