From an article titled "Hospitality: Every Christian’s Calling." Pastor Paul Jeon looks at the biblical foundation for hospitality, addresses common hesitations that keep people from practicing it, and shows the many natural opportunities for it within church life.

"Few practices more clearly reflect our new identity as the family of God than the open table, the shared meal, and the intentional welcome of others into our daily lives."

"Hospitality is a quiet but powerful way we answer the call of our Shepherd. We embody his love by offering presence, care, and dignity to others in ordinary life. Hospitality becomes lived counsel, where truth and grace unite tangibly."

"Hospitality offers more than comfort. For many, the gospel begins to ‘click’ through the ordinary act of being welcomed to the table."

"Many people carry a quiet burden of loneliness, shame, or disconnection. In this context, hospitality can make a world of difference. Hospitality embodies the truths of the gospel in a way that is visible, tangible, and deeply personal."

From an article by Mike Emlet titled "Content with Weakness: Paul's Paradoxical Proposal." We're giving away this article for free! Learn how to access it here: https://t.co/fQ25WGgql8

Drawing from 2 Corinthians 12 and his own recent experiences, Emlet explores what it truly means for Christ’s grace to be sufficient in our weakness.

"Grace is not a concept but is wrapped in the life and work of the giver—Jesus Christ. And because the source of grace is a person, the grace itself is personal. When you are suffering, Jesus is personally present with you."

"Grace cannot be quantified, as if big suffering mandates big grace from the Lord and smaller suffering calls for less grace. Jesus gives all of himself to you in your time of need. He does not hold back."

"Weakness and strength are simultaneous. It is precisely when we are weakest that Jesus opens widest the floodgates of his strength to us. I may not feel strong in the moment, but the promise of Christ to strengthen me is objectively true."

Rather than offering quick-fix, anger management tips, this teaching invites you into a deeper, lifelong process of relating your real life to a real God. In “Sanctification (A Transforming Anger),” David Powlison draws on Psalm 40 and Psalm 23, and its “anti-Psalm” counterpart, to discuss how sanctification is walking with the Good Shepherd through one real-life situation after another.

We’re giving away three free conference sessions by David Powlison on the topic of anger from our 2005 National Conference. Simply enter your email and receive the audio to your inbox: https://t.co/gyw8291Sel
