How should any disciplinary activity be approached and what should be the desired outcomes?

What do you think about the process Jesus outlines here?

Is it still necessary, have you seen it done well, have you seen it done badly?

3 - How are we qualified to engage in discipline?

In our morning service of Sunday 29th October we were thinking about discipline in the church - recognising it is a difficult subject and one many of us would like to avoid, but also recognising that sometimes it is necessary. We looked at what Jesus says about it in Matthew 18:15-20, how it should work and what we should be hoping to achieve.
