Jesus spent a chunk of his ministry eating and drinking with the
""sinners and tax collectors"" of the world. If we strive to be more
like Jesus, shouldnt we do more of what he did?
Hospitality involves
more than the domesticated event we have grown accustomed to practicing.
It is an embodiment of all the Christian life stands for: a gesture of
love, opening up our hearts and lives, and sacrificing luxury and
security for the chance to display Gods glory. To receive hospitality
from others is an invitation to receive Gods transformative power to
work in their lives.
Readers will ask themselves these questions:
- What is hospitality?
- Is it something I am, or something I do?
- How do I offer my life as a gesture of hospitality?
- What are some practical ways for me to display and receive hospitality?
