Come To The Table Flipping
Who is the most hospitable person that you know? Think of someone you know who is a model of the kind of friendliness, generous welcome and warmth we associate with great hospitality. What can you expect when they welcome you into their home? They make every effort to make you feel comfortable, offer you a drink, marvel you with a spread of sumptuous food, listen attentively, hold your rapt attention as a conversationalist, and on and on. These are the skills that make us feel welcome, and "at home." But what does hospitality look like in the church? And what does it take from each and all of us to make sure that everyone feels "at home"?
