There are times when what God commands in His word and through His apostles flies in the face of what we are taught by the world, and even by well-meaning and kind people around us. When it comes to strangers, for example, we are taught as children not to speak to them. Then, as we grow up and become more aware of the evil that is out there, we still do our best to avoid strangers even though we have more capacity for protecting ourselves. Jesus tells us to be as shrewd as serpents and as innocent as doves - when dealing with the WORLD! But God's word calls us to a different reaction to those with whom we may not be familiar in the body of Christ. This week at Friendship, we'll talk about hospitality; not the kind you show your best friends and family members, but the kind we are commanded to show to the body of Christ even when we don't really know someone well. Too often, even in church, we are hesitant to get to know new people and show personal love and hospitality to them. But God says that when we are hospitable to Christian strangers, we may be "entertaining angels" without even knowing it. Gather with us online Sunday for this challenging, yet very practical message!
