Sermon Audio (2.9.14) – Our Practices: Hospitality
February 10th, 2014 | John Chandler
We continue working our way through our Practices, our hopes for the kind of people we want to be not only with each other, but when we aren’t together. This week, John Chandler talked about hospitality and the importance of make space in our life for others who aren’t like us.
Here are the resources and quotes that were mentioned:
- “If you start a conversation with the assumption that you are right or that you must win, obviously it is difficult to talk.” — Wendell Berry
- “When you experience someone who is closed, hard, who has already arrived and needs no more, something is very wrong. The presence of the Spirit creates an openness. That openness is a willingness to engage views and ways of thinking and being that are utterly contrary to who you are and what you believe. Openness I would define as the humility to know that the story is not finished, and that God intends character’s to enter my story that I would never have chosen.” — Dan Allender
