Angel at the door
“Do not forget to show hospitality to strangers, for by so doing some people have shown hospitality to angels without knowing it.” (Hebrews 13:2)

“Practice hospitality one to one another without complaining.” (1 Peter 4:9 RSV)
“[Tom and Wilma] write with style, clarity and gracefulness. They contextualize their advice with real-world examples, while they develop most of their arguments thoroughly, persuasively, and with scriptural back-up.”

“[Tom and Wilma English], husband and wife, ask readers to redefine hospitality by considering it from a biblical sense in this impassioned book. In modern parlance, hospitality implies entertaining perfectly and putting on a show…. But, for them, this is misguided; they see expressing love in a practical way and developing relationships as the true nature of hospitality. By creating an environment in which God can work and reaching out when others are in need (instead of waiting for the perfect set of circumstances) … one can rediscover the heart of hospitality. …The [book] is filled with biblical imperatives (‘Cheerfully share your home with those who need a meal or place to stay’) and stories of how hospitality helped people find grace (Abraham greeting the three angels at his home is used as an origin tale). Bringing together all the Bible has to say about being hospitable, the Englishes’ forceful book will appeal to Christians interested in deeply scriptural reading.”
