Reflecting God’s character
Like a refiner of silver God is at work purifying us and forming us into the image of Jesus.
Cultivating watchfulness
As the prophet kept watch over the city, looking for what God was doing and saying – can we do the same?
Trusting God’s promises
As Israel waited in exile and through the centuries for God to act – and then when Jesus came they didn’t recognise him.
Hospitality-shaped church
What can we learn from the way the early Christians lived filled with the Spirit.
Inviting the uninvited
Jesus calls us to radical hospitality. It’s hard to give up control, to allow in people who don’t belong, to let our lives get messy… but God did that for us, so should we do any less?
Compassion without borders
Jesus challenges us to offer hospitality and compassion to people far beyond those like us, or people we get on with.
Generosity in hardship
Generosity is an attitude of heart, and may not involve money at all. What do we have that can be used in God’s service?
Relentless grace
God’s grace to Jonah was patient, and relentless – what does it look like to invite others to discover that grace for themselves?
Becoming humble
Jesus demonstrated true humility – but what actually is it, and how can we follow his example in hospitality?
Sharing more with Jesus
Jesus broke through social, ethnic and gender barriers to transform one woman’s life. What radical hospitality is he calling us to?
Following God’s example
Food – and creation – plays a central part in God’s work of reconciling himself with fallen humanity.
Entertaining angels
We don’t have to be wealthy to show hospitality to strangers – and in so doing perhaps meet angels unawares.
