Hospitality and our "enemies"


Several weeks ago, Soulforce Equality Ride came through Colorado and stopped at my alma mater Colorado Christian University. I was very pleased to see how the school handled the riders. This article from Christianity Today points out The Power of Hospitality
In an increasingly polarized political culture, shouting slogans is predictable, not newsworthy. As biblical Christians find themselves at odds with various groups, it's worth remembering that "fighting the culture" is more effective with meals and washbasins than it is with posters and bullhorns.

yes my brother,

the way to win the culture wars (or that matter, who says we need to win?) is to carry the towel and basin wherever we go and follow in the steps of our savior.

I'm a CCU grad as well, when did you graduate?
