Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Dec 28, 2021

Bold Hospitality Series

Contributed by Darryl Klassen on May 27, 2008

In our series on Stewardship we focused on many issues, one of them being hospitality and its role in the life of the church. God is a hospitable God and in our imitation of him it makes logical sense to include hospitality in our personal ministries.
