STRANGER LOVE: The Radical Hospitality of Jesus

Radical hospitality is a cornerstone of the way of Jesus. 

 

But the primary way Jesus demonstrates hospitality isn’t by hosting parties and having people over for dinner (in fact, he did a lot of inviting Himself over to dinner in other people’s homes, but that’s another sermon for another day.)

 

Jesus embodies a spirit of hospitality - affection for strangers - by seeing people, making room for them, being with them, and responding with compassion. Jesus shows us a hospitality that is first about being with, and then about doing for. 

 

As a church, we highly value diversity, inclusion and hospitality. We desire for Forest Brook to be a community where everyone belongs, especially those who are typically excluded elsewhere. A community where spiritual flourishing is mutual (dependent on one another), but looks different from person to person. We believe that this culture of hospitality should be embodied by each one of us, extending into the majority of our lives lived outside of the church. As we pursue this vision for a community, we’re exploring a greater understanding of what it means to be a people who are hospitable.

 

This winter, we’re focusing on the radical hospitality of Jesus, and the nourishing power of ‘withness’- it’s perhaps more important now than ever to widen our circles of affection, to make room for the stranger, and to truly see one another.

Flourish is our big theme for all things Forest Brook, for the entire year. It even has it's own page, CLICK HERE.
