Hospitality is the act of showing generosity and kindness and can be an extension of our worship. In our Forever Forward series, Rev. Venida Rodman Jenkins talks about how important it is to look beyond ourselves, and consider how we can reimagine hospitality as an extension of our worship. Reimagine inviting people (guests, visitors, strangers) into our church, spaces, lives, stories, worlds. Lydia, is the central character in this sermon. She is an example of a woman whose love for the good news of Jesus Christ led her to show hospitality by using her resources of finances and time to help support the work of Jesus, and she opened her home for people in the early church.
