Description
The need for hospitality At the very root of the Christian tradition is the biblical model and mandate to offer welcome to and share hospitality with "strangers," those who are outside one's particular community or community of faith. In the Hebrew Scripture hospitality is underscored with classic stories, such as the welcoming of the three strangers by Abraham and Sarah (Genesis 18), and with God's command to Israel to welcome the stranger and sojourner because the Israelites themselves were in those categories during their slavery in Egypt (e.g., Lev 19: 33-34). Hospitality in the New Testament includes the entire ministry of Jesus in word and deed in the canonical Gospels as well as the continual encouragement of the apostle Paul and other writers. Even though many Christian communities and individuals may have lost a firm perspective on that heritage of hospitality over the centuries, "hospitality is a way of life fundamental to the Christian identity."
