Naked Community...
1) Creates Boundaries of Freedom
Genesis 2:15-17 NIV
15 The LORD God took the man and put him in the Garden of Eden to work it and take care of it.16 And the LORD God commanded the man, “You are free to eat from any tree in the garden17 but you must not eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, for when you eat from it you will certainly die.”

2) Gives Me What I Need
Genesis 2:19 NIV
18 The LORD God said, “It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper suitable for him.”

3) Focuses My Shame
Genesis 3:6-11 NIV
6 When the woman saw that the fruit of the tree was good for food and pleasing to the eye, and also desirable for gaining wisdom, she took some and ate it. She also gave some to her husband, who was with her, and he ate it.7 Then the eyes of both of them were opened, and they realized they were naked; so they sewed fig leaves together and made coverings for themselves.8 Then the man and his wife heard the sound of the LORD God as he was walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and they hid from the LORD God among the trees of the garden.9 But the LORD God called to the man, “Where are you?”10 He answered, “I heard you in the garden, and I was afraid because I was naked; so I hid.”11 And he said, “Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten from the tree that I commanded you not to eat from?”

Psalm 32:5 AMPC
5 I acknowledged my sin to You, and my iniquity I did not hide. I said, I will confess my transgressions to the Lord [continually unfolding the past till all is told]–then You [instantly] forgave me the guilt and iniquity of my sin. Selah [pause, and calmly think of that]!
