S1E11: Turning Strangers into Neighbors: Rosaria Butterfield

What does “loving the stranger” mean? And how do we start a
friendship with someone who seems so different from us? Today’s
guest, Rosaria Butterfield, gives us the first step: practicing
“radically ordinary hospitality.” Rosaria is an author, speaker,
pastor’s wife, and homeschool mom in Durham, North Carolina. Her
newest book The Gospel Comes with a Key tells how Rosaria and her
husband Kent use their home as a mission field as they dine with
guests every night, and how they’ve opened their
not-really-a-spare-bedroom to house guests. Rosaria shares the
struggle of becoming a bridge for hospitality, the crippling pain
of loneliness, why she kept a man running meth lab in her
neighborhood as her house guest, and her recipe for a hearty
minestrone soup.
