  CHRISTIAN HOSPITALITY  

"Let brotherly love continue.  Do not neglect to show hospitality to strangers, for thereby some have entertained angels unawares."

Hebrews 13:1&2

"Love one another with brotherly affection.  Outdo one another in showing honor.  Do not be slothful in zeal, be fervent in spirit, serve the Lord. Rejoice in hope, be patient in tribulation, be constant in prayer.  Contribute to the needs of the saints and seek to show hospitality."

Romans 12:10-13 

"If I have enjoyed the hospitality of the Host of this universe, Who daily spreads a table in my sight, surely I cannot do less than acknowledge my dependence."

A. Johnstone Ross

PLEASE HELP!

1.)  I am making a list of all the people in the bible who have demonstrated hospitality.  Please send me any examples that come to mind.  So far I have:

1. Martha in Luke 10
2. Shunammite woman and her husband
3. Abraham to the angels in Genesis 18
4. Priscilla and Aquila

        2.)  Please share a testimony of being blessed/challenged in giving or receiving  hospitality.  How have you been affected by hospitality?
