How can you love people—even when it’s uncomfortable, even when it hurts?

What did you think about Pastor Crockett's statement below?
To cover someone’s sin means you talk to them, not about them. You nurture the evidences of God’s grace in them. You love them. You come with hope. "I’m your friend. I care about you. I’m not talking to other people. I’m not seeking to destroy you. I don’t think I’m better than you. There’s no malice in my heart. I don’t want to be your critic, I want to be your counselor & comforter who walks with you. Could I serve you? When you see sin in my life could you serve me by confronting me? Could we keep each other accountable?”
