Now more than ever, the world is hungry to gather and thirsty for
connection. Many of us wish to share a meal, share our faith, and
share our lives with others. We want to open our home to friends
and neighbors for the sake of meaningful community, but we're
overwhelmed with hospitality hang-ups. How do I extend an
invitation? What will they think of my house or the food? Our
welcome has been influenced by the messages of the world that tell
us hospitality is about our ability to be, host, live, and cook a
certain way. In Gather & Give, Amy Hannon inspires you to
embrace the simple hospitality of the Bible that values connection
more than perfection and people more than presentation. Amy shares
scriptural principles and practical ideas to make everyday
hospitality a natural, joy-filled part of your life. You will feel
encouraged and equipped to view your home as: a holy wellspring of
welcome to offer hope to a weary world; a strategic springboard for
ministering to those around you; and the perfect platform for
influencing others for Christ. Find freedom in knowing that the
hospitality of the Bible is uncomplicated and effortless, that a
welcome can be used by God to share His love and hope with the
world, and that there is abounding joy in following the Lord in His
hospitality command. Whether preparing shrimp and grits for a crowd
or picking up barbecue with new neighbors, you can invite with
intention, plate with purpose, and love others well.
