The Gospel comes with a Housekey

‘The practise of Biblical hospitality…’. I wonder what that phrase conjures up in your mind? Here is a compelling portrait of the dynamics of genuine hospitality in discipleship and evangelism. Rosaria draws from her book ‘The Gospel comes with a Housekey’. I warn you though - it is one of the most moving and heart-searching books I’ve ever read. Rosaria’s own story is an insight into the devestating grace of God in redeeming some of the most unlikely people… and brings an integrity to her teaching that I suspect some of you will find disturbing.

If she’s right though (and for the record I think she is) this is a book that will expose patterns of sin in places you haven’t even realised you had! It teaches us to see our home as ‘not our own, but as God’s gift to be used for the furtherance of His Kingdom’.

p.s. it’s worth having a look at Rosaria’s videos on Youtube. She speaks to a wide variety of issues, from abortion to LGBTQ, from feminisim to repentance and preferred pronouns!!
