Essential: Hospitality

January 23, 2022

Romans 12: 9-13
Andre Nouwen wrote “Hospitality means primarily the creation of free space where the stranger can enter and become a friend instead of an enemy. Hospitality is not to change people, but to offer them space where change can take place.” At Lakeside creating moments (space) for people to meet, become friends, find peace, and experience belonging is essential. People make it possible to create these moments (and spaces). When writing about the practical outworking of the Christian faith the Apostle Paul addressed sincerity. Intentional love that lifts others above self, and active hospitality. Join us as we explore Scripture together and pursue living authentic Christian lives.
