Requests:  0 Summary:  "Many people today feel lonely, isolated, and disconnected from God and others. We crave authentic community, but we have no idea where to start. We'd be glad to cultivate friendships; but honestly, who's got the time? In Invited, writer Leslie Verner says real hospitality is not having a Pinterest-perfect table or well-appointed living room. True hospitality is not clean, comfortable, or controlled. It is an invitation to enter a sacred space together with friends and strangers. Through vivid accounts from her life and travels in Uganda, China, and Tajikistan, and stories of visiting congregations in the United States, Verner shares stories of life around the table and how hospitality is at the heart of Christian community. What if we in the West learned about hospitality from people around the globe? What if our homes became laboratories of belonging? Invited will empower you to open your home, get to know your neighbors, and prioritize people over tasks. Holy hospitality requires more of Jesus and less of us. It leads not only to loving the stranger but to becoming the stranger. Welcome to a new kind of hospitality." --   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Social Science & Philosophy 241.671 Ve Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kailua Public Library Adult Nonfiction 241.671 Ve Checked In Add Copy to MyList Makawao Public Library Adult Nonfiction 241.671 Ve Checked In Add Copy to MyList Wailuku Public Library Adult Nonfiction 241.671 Ve Checked In Add Copy to MyList
