At L'Abri we think and talk a lot about hospitality. Most
Christian teaching about hospitality focuses on the role of the
host, on opening our hearts and our doors to others, even
strangers. But what about the other side of the door? This
lecture will examine what it looks like to be a good guest and
why understanding this role is essential for obeying the New
Testament commands to "pursue hospitality" and "offer hospitality
to one another."
