Coming This Sunday: Hospitality
Everyone knows what good hospitality feels like. Those are the restaurants, hotels, stadiums we go back to. Bad hospitality? Well lets just say that people only get one chance to make a great first impression.
This week we continue our conversation around Life's Primary Element focusing on the first habit of community: hospitality. We'll look at how we're supposed to life with people we don't know, don't trust, maybe even with those we don't like.
Our scripture for the week is from Hebrews 13.1-3, 15-16:
Let mutual love continue. Do not neglect to show hospitality to strangers, for by doing that some have entertained angels without knowing it. Remember those who are in prison, as though you were in prison with them; those who are being tortured, as though you yourselves were being tortured.
Through him, then, let us continually offer a sacrifice of praise to God, that is, the fruit of lips that confess his name. Do not neglect to do good and to share what you have, for such sacrifices are pleasing to God.
We'll be looking at what it means for us to live hospitable lives individually and collectively as the Body of Christ.
And, I'll explain why people are walking around Parkway Heights in Aprons on Sunday mornings now.
