It says to expel your brother and it seems harsh. How should I confront it all?

Going to assume you mean 1 Corinthians 5:13.
First, read the verse in context.
Second, the footnotes help. For this verse " [5:9–13] Paul here corrects a misunderstanding of his earlier directives against associating with immoral fellow Christians. He concedes the impossibility of avoiding contact with sinners in society at large but urges the Corinthians to maintain the inner purity of their own community."

Agree with TLL. Anytime you struggle with passages, read the footnotes, or pull up Haydock’s commentary onilne.
