"Patriotic Ambassadors: Hospitality Worthy of a Jesus Embassy" by Bryant Martin
Strength to Strength welcomed Bryant Martin to discuss how we can be ambassadors of radical welcome.
What on earth is hospitality anyhow? Is it a hallmark of our King and his kingdom? If so, how are we going to remove the bottlenecks to be obedient citizens?
My goal is to convince you that at the heart of Christianity and kingdom advance is bringing-heaven-to-earth hospitality.
There are two mandates in the New Testament. One is witness, the other is service. To ignore either of them is to seriously cripple the church . . . to engage in evangelism of soul without recognition that those souls also have bodies is foolish and unreal . . . love which is demonstrated in tangible acts of Christian caring is irresistible.
-Stanley Mooneyham
Jesus wants a society of redeemed people to show the world what the whole world would look like if everybody obeyed the King.
-John D. Martin
An interactive question-and-answer period follows.
Bryant recently shared a topic with Anabaptists Perspectives called “Christian Hospitality and Why It Matters.” Listen to these two episodes for a foundation for this talk.
