Description
This is not a book about entertaining. It is a book about the kind of hospitality that is a gift from God and how we can practice it in every aspect of our lives -- in church, at home, while driving to the grocery store. As she explores models of hospitality in the Bible and how Jesus modeled the development of this gift for us, Halverson shows specific ways we can achieve a hospitable lifestyle wherever we are.
