Course

Practicing Hospitality

Hospitality is one of the oldest Christian practices, and one of the easiest to forget. This course looks at how scripture describes welcome and what it might look like in our own homes and pews.

Each session is about twenty minutes, with a reflection question and one small thing to try during the week.
