What is Hospitality?
Cheerfully sharing food, shelter, and spiritual refreshment with those God
brings into my path.
It's related to the motivational gift of Serving Scripture Text: "Be not forgetful to entertain strangers: for thereby some have entertained angels unawares. - Hebrews 13:2 Some of the Attributes: Learning how to provide an atmosphere which contributes to the physical and spiritual growth of those around us. Learning who to invite into your home and how long the visit should last. Making other people comfortable with our possessions. Questions to ask yourself: 1. Do you know what type of people God does not want in your home? 2. Do your attitudes communicate that your possessions are more important than the guests? 3. Are there things in your home that hinder godliness and grieve the Holy Spirit? 4. Do those that visit your home feel like guests or family members? 5. Do people look forward to a pleasant visit in your home, or do they suffer through family conflicts? Projects and Bible Study Questions to help instill this quality: Who showed hospitality to strangers in the Bible and really didn't entertain angels? Who showed hospitality to Jesus when He was on earth? Who was remembered in the early church for hear hospitality? (Acts 16:14,15,40) NOTE: People who use Scriptures on hospitality as a hint to receive rather than to give are usually freeloaders and not people in need. |
