TitleA Christian View of Hospitality: Expecting Surprises
AuthorMichele Hershberger
Notes"Hospitality should be central to Christian identity. It is a fundamental practice of the Christian life, though it is frequently crowded out by other responsibilities and priorities. Challenges to grow in hospitality can feel overwhelming when we imagine adding one more task to schedules that are already too full. But, while costly, hospitality is also life giving. It is worth a closer look.

In this book Michele Hershberger gives us a chance to look more closely at hospitality. Through a marvelous collection of biblical and contemporary stories about hospitality, she brings the practice to life. Her book is, in a sense, a report from the field. It has the vibrancy of an adventure story. It is filled with personal accounts and anecdotes that help us see what hospitality means and looks like today."
