    Principles to learn from Abraham. Eagerness to show hospitality; Abraham chose to offer hospitality; Hospitality with no strings attached; Disruptive hospitality; Hospitality that honours the guest.

    Today we are looking at a story of hospitality shown to some strangers. This is a story that comes from a different world: a different place and a different time. About 4000 years ago in what we know as the west bank today. We would find it a far less ‘busy’ world than the one we live ...read more

    Sometimes when you've made the same dumb mistake again, you get a vague sense of déjà vu. That's what Abraham got when Abimelek rebuked him for lying about Sarah being his sister. Let's don't keep falling into the same sins!
