Meditation Monday – The Hospitality of Friendship

by Christine Sine
written by Christine Sine

by Christine Sine

Tom and I are on the final week of our 25th anniversary trip and I find myself reflecting a lot on whom we have met and what we have experienced. So much to process, and I know that the first couple of weeks at home will be a rich time of looking back with gratitude and appreciation.

I am particularly grateful for the gift of friendship and the richness it has brought to our trip and to us. So many have invited us into their lives in generous gifts of hospitality both given and received. Friends old and new have offered hospitality and opened their homes and their lives to us as we travelled.

Some have hosted us in their homes. We have reconnected to old friends in Durham, Edinburgh, Chichester and Hove and renewed friendships. The gaps have melted away as we pick up where we left off 10 or more years ago. There is nothing like a good friendship revived after many years. Ii is a little like enjoying an expensive vintage wine that has been bottled and kept in the dark until it is at its best.

Strangers too have offered of hospitality and have become friends in the process. Communities in London and Prague in particular where the generous offer of hospitality has brought us together with likeminded people and cemented our friendship in ways we never anticipated.

There is the gift of good friends met along the way too. In Passau Germany we renewed friendship with Tom’s best man from our wedding after 10 years apart and in London a chance comment on Facebook led to a meeting with a long term friend from San Diego. Such special blessings to reconnect and make new memories together.

There is the gift of strangers who have become friends. Chance met companions along the way like a couple from Canada we kept running into on Iona and then heading back to Oban on the ferry. And on our Viking cruise, fellow travellers from Australia, Canada and the U.S. have given us cherished memories and new friendships to enjoy. Even the staff offered the friendship of celbrating our 25th anniversary with us. Strangers are friends waiting to happen. 

In the midst of these generous gifts we have been able to offer a small measure of hospitality too. Both guests and hosts as the Celtic Christians taught us. We have cooked meals and issued invitations for extending hospitality in Seattle hoping that the bonds already formed will continue to be strengthened.

As I reflect back on these encounters and the specialness of friendship hospitality, Ecclesiastes 4:12 comes to mind A cord of three strands is not easily broken. Every friendship is like a threefold cord. It may only involve two people but always in the background there is that third strand of God’s presence that weaves together the other strands in love and companionship.

God does not intend any of us to travel alone. Friendship is one of the most precious gifts of hospitality. It is all around us waiting to be given and received, waiting to bless and to be a blessing.

What is Your Response?

You may not have travelled as much as we have in the last month, but God has still offered you the hospitality of friends. Sit for a moment and think about your own encounters over the last few weeks:

Who are the friends you have shared hospitality with that have enriched your life and provided special memories? Sit in the stillness of the moment and savour those memories. Write about them in your journal. Offer prayers of gratitude to God for them. Is there a special response that God might ask you to make towards them?

Who are the strangers you have encountered that have enriched your life? In what ways did they provide hospitality for you? In what ways were you able to be their hosts? Savour these memories too. Journal about them. Offer prayers of gratitude to God. Is there a special response God is asking you to make?

Now read this prayer which I wrote as I considered the encounters I have had that have provided hospitality for me:

Unite us God Almighty,
Unite us with the threefold cord of friendship.
Unite us with the threefold cord of love.
In the name of the Creator,
In the name of the Son,
In the name of the Spirit,
Unite us with the Three,
Unite us with the One,
Unite us with the strands
That can never be broken.

Is there a prayer that bubbles up from within your heart too? Write it down and if you feel prompted share it with us as a comment on this post.

Freerange Friday: God’s Welcome Mat

by Lilly Lewin
written by Lilly Lewin

This week I’ve been thinking about God’s welcome for me.

I’m not sure I’m very good at experiencing God’s welcome. I think I feel the responsibility of providing welcome and hosptiality to and for others, but I don’t always know how to experience it for myself. I think I need practice. I need to start watching and paying attention to the welcome and invitations of God.

 

What do we know about the welcome and hospitallity of God?

 

We talk a lot about how we are invited by Jesus to welcome the stranger, the least, the lost and the lonely. But what about how Jesus welcomes each of us? What does the welcome of Jesus, or the welcome of God look like in my life or in your life?

Would you recognize it?

How have you felt welcomed by God? Just talking about it feels a little awkward, right? Me, really? I don’t know what that is supposed to feel like.

Or how about this: God is in your life welcoming you right now. I have a history with God, as you do too. So, how have you seen or experienced the Welcome of God in the past?

Or better yet, how do you need Jesus to welcome you right now? These questions seem simple, but we so rarely ask them or even think about them. Does God really want to welcome me or you? It seems that we need to re-understand God’s love for us, right now, concretely. But I normally move on, and accomplish something instead of taking the time to connect. And I’ll bet you do too. It’s the same as having house guests. You actually need to look them in the eye, connect with them and show interest in them. So…imagine God doing that for you. God stopping, caring, asking, connecting with you. God breaks through shame and sin, and walks up to hug us.

 

I started thinking about what I know about the welcome and hospitallity of God…

 

God throws parties in honor of finding lost sheep

God gives us the best robe and a ring and kills the fatted calf in our honor even after we’ve squandered everything. Even in my/ your shame and disgrace,

God runs to welcome me and you!

 

What else?

 

Jesus invites us out of trees. Jesus invites himself over for dinner.

Jesus invites us to leave familiar territory and familiar tasks and follow him, and not just follow, but become his partner in living out the kingdom.

 

Jesus invites us to dine with him. Jesus washes our feet. Jesus surprises us when we aren’t expecting him. He just shows up and breaks bread and reminds us of his love. Jesus welcomes us with breakfast, he’s already prepared for us, when we didn’t catch anything all night. And Jesus reinstates our purpose even after we’ve betrayed him!

 

I’d say that’s real welcome and hospitalty!

It’s God’s gift to me and you.

Can I receive it from God?

 

How do I receive the hospitaliy of Jesus? How do I receive his hosptiality and the welcome he gives through other people? Do I , do you, miss the Welcome of God because we are too busy to notice?

 

So what do we do about this?

 

Just Start. Like always, right? Take Baby steps.

Give yourself permission to receive the gifts, receive the invitiations of welcome and hosptiality of God. Begin to practice receiving the welcome mats God puts out for you in the midst of your every day life. They are there if we’ll see them.

 

What if we began to practice sitting on the front porch with God? Or picking a spot of beauty where we can just be with Jesus on a regular basis. I actually have a picture I’ve cut out of a magazine that is my place to hang out and experience the welcome of God when I travel and cannot be in an actual space of beauty or on my porch.

 

Jesus says that he has gone to prepare a place for us, but what places has Jesus prepared for you and me right now? What place and people of welcome are in your life right now?

 

How can we experience more of God’s welcome?

 

The Welcome in the sunset or in a rainbow or in the calm after the storm.

The Welcome in the laugter of children.

The Welcome in the hug of a friend, or the kiss of a dog when you arrive home.

 

What if we begin to imagine Jesus preparing places of welcome for us everyday?

How would we view the world differently?

 

Let’s start paying more attention and being intentional about watching for God’s welcome mats for us!

 

——————–

 

  • Draw a picture or look through magazines or photos on line, for a place that reminds you of the Welcome of God. Cut it out or print it out and use it as a reminder of God’s welcome and invitation for you to be with God!

Maybe it’s more than one place!

  • What does it look like, feel like, smell like?
  • What are the things that make you feel welcomed?
  • Take some time today to talk to God about this!

Hospitality

Wonder Wall

by Hilary Horn
written by Hilary Horn

A short story about becoming hospitable to others and ourselves by Keren Dibbens-Wyatt —

There once was an old stone wall. Its lot felt difficult and its burdens heavy. It guarded the inside and it patrolled the outside, and felt the pushing of both on either flank.  In places, because it was old, and softened by the wind and the rains, it had begun to crumble. Nuggets of sandstone would fall off into the soil and pebble dash the flower beds below. Trellises were nailed into him here and there, and roses trailed across his body, tickling his bricks and scratching his skin with their blasted thorns, though he did have to admit the flowers were rather beautiful.  Birds came and nested in the roses and the wisteria, and the ivy, and all his length seemed given over to some life or other. There was hardly a crumb of himself left bare to call his own.  He felt very weary and sad, and quite honestly, put upon.

He had not complained once, out loud, but some things you can only hold in for so long, and one day he started to tell his troubles to a swallow that was passing by on its way to other, more exciting continents that the wall would never see, but the bird was already gone before the wall had spoken a sentence. How rude, thought the wall.

He kept his pain locked inside even longer, and then one day, when a friendly looking squirrel was burying things in the raised beds inside his perimeter, he dared to open up again, but the small creature was far too busy counting her hoard of acorns to really pay much attention, and only nodded here and there, and said, “Quite,” once or twice, albeit sympathetically. This wasn’t really the listening ear that the wall needed. He sighed and locked his sadness down once more.

A few weeks later, he felt the sticky irritation of a snail which was sliming its way up him, and began his tale of woe, since he figured the unidexter would not be able to skate away from him before he’d finished speaking, and he was right. The snail seemed indeed to be listening, its tentacles waved in all the right places, and there even appeared to be a nod once or twice. The wall told his new friend all about the roses, and the duty, and the birds’ nests, and the gardeners who came and nailed things to him, and the grass that grew at his feet, and the strain of keeping everything in and everything out both at the same time. He told it about the tickling and the scratching and the digging, about his crumbling and his holes and his having to be still and never going anywhere at all ever, about his desires to see the world and make something of himself, and his despair over his great age.

At length, he ran out of misery to tell the snail, and stopped talking. The snail, who had stopped in its tracks, then said something rather surprising. It said, “Wow.”

“Wow?” answered the wall, not sure he had heard right.

“Wow, just wow.” Said the snail. The wall was a bit annoyed.

“What do you mean by that? Do you think I have a lot of troubles?”

“Troubles!!” exclaimed the snail, “Is that what you call them?” and most aggravatingly, he laughed, a great big belly laugh, too, which sounded very odd coming from such a tiny creature.

“Yes. Indeed, heaps of troubles! What would you call them then?”

“Well my friend,” said the snail, and the wall warmed to it, as no-one had ever called him friend before. “I call them blessings.”

“Blessings!”

“For sure! To be a guardian, and a protector, to hold space for so many lives. To rock sparrows to sleep and provide shelter to house martins, to be a safe place for so many creatures to grow and thrive. To be covered in beautiful flowers, to have reached such a great age and been a help to so many lives, large and small. Certainly, I call those blessings! And as for travel, you have already gone so much further in your great length than I will wander in a lifetime, and try as we might, even my children’s children may not manage to finish exploring all your magnificence. You are very great, wall, and mightily blessed. It’s an honour to know you, and to walk upon you with my one foot.” The snail bowed.

If the wall had had a head, it would have been spinning. Blessings? Greatness? Protector? Were all these things true? Had he been so ungrateful and so blind all his life not to see himself and his lot this way?

“Dear snail, thank you. I… I don’t know what to say. It has been wonderful to be listened to, and to hear your gastropodic perspective. I wonder why I have made such hard work of my life.”

“Well, if you ask me,” said the snail, cocking its head to one side, as it always did when thinking deep thoughts, “You need to breathe more deeply, and maybe instead of thinking that your insides are trying to get out and your outsides are trying to get in, look at it that you are simply a frame, a border, like a ..” it stopped to find a suitable analogy from its little life. “Like a raindrop is water on the inside and air on the outside, else it doesn’t have a shape, and both are happy where they are.”  

“Well,” said the wall in wonder, “What a wise snail you are! I have been a fool. I shall be my shape. Breathing is what I shall do, and the more porous I get the deeper I shall do it. Thank you.”

“You’re welcome,” said the snail, yawning, for all this listening and thinking and talking had quite worn it out. And a few moments later, the snail fell into a deep, relaxing sleep, curled up in its shell, stuck to the wall. And the wall felt it there and felt the blessing of the tiny coiled creature, its microscopic breathing (did you know a snail could snore?) and the loveliness of the sticky curtain it had drawn across its doorway. He felt proud to know it, and all its friends and relations, and it was not very long before the wall was counting his blessings and feeling quite dizzy with the amount of them. He then remembered to breathe deeply, and looked about himself with a grateful heart, a very different wall from an hour ago, and yet to all appearances, exactly the same.

Hospitality

Bringing Mission to Our Tables

by Hilary Horn
written by Hilary Horn

By Hilary Horn —

One of my all time favorite things to do is to have people gathered around our table. Preparing big batches of food, prized even more if most of its from our garden, glasses of wine and cheerful friends – bring a deep sense of joy and gratitude to my heart. I love feeding people. I love laughter and community. Each week we intentionally have at least three to five meals with people – friends, family or strangers we just met. Partially because we are pastors and that’s our thing, but even more so because it’s the way I see Jesus interacting with people the most too – around a meal.

I love this quote from Tim Chester, taken from his book  A Meal With Jesus.  He says, “People often complain that they lack time for mission. But we all have to eat. Three meals a day, seven days a week. That’s twenty one opportunities for mission and community without adding anything to your schedule.”

Sometimes we make mission too complicated or negate mission out of our lives completely. Saving it for the missionary or pastor we know. But we cannot separate our faith from mission. For me, hospitality has grown into such a rich way to do mission. Hospitality brings out things in people you can’t just see over a cup of coffee or a a third space. When you invite people in your home, giving them a taste of your life and culture, it unlocks a deeper sense of being known. Conversations and your connections are deeper. Mission becomes easier because it’s natural. People know you love them and conversations about God flow because that is the rhythm of your life.

I realize this can be scary for many. Your house may not be up to par the way you want it, you may not be the best cook or you’re afraid of what people may think of you. Maybe because I grew up with huge family gatherings, this type of thing doesn’t stress me out. I learned from a small age what it means to cook for 5-30 people in a pinch and put on welcoming ambiances from some of the pro’s (my mom, grandma and aunts). But I realize that isn’t the case for everyone. It can seem like a huge task. But remember, we all have to eat. Somehow you get it done.

One of the biggest things I have learned though is that you don’t need to be perfect. Boxed frozen pizza and cheap beer or tap water can do the trick. Messy houses and imperfect lives are okay. We live in a “Pinterest perfect” generation which can often lead to lots of unhealthy expectations that cripple us in the process of hospitality. I have found that most people don’t even care about perfect place settings, prestige houses and themed events. What they do care about is being known, heard, welcomed and loved. You throw food in the mix and it’s even better.

My challenge to you this week is to invite some people over to dinner. Just start with one meal. Don’t stress out about it. Make something simple or even order take out. If your house is a mess, don’t clean it. Seriously. No one comes with inspection gloves to see that layer of dust on your shelf or care if your toddler just rampaged through the house. Spend more energy in thinking about thoughtful questions to ask your guests to truly deepen relationship. Hospitality is a process, but it doesn’t have to be a complicated one. All you need is a simple invitation over and the rest will figure itself out.

HospitalityMeditation Monday

Meditation Monday – Guests of Those Who Have Gone Before

by Christine Sine
written by Christine Sine

by Christine Sine

Tom and I are now in Prague, after a wonderful river cruise up the Rhine and down the Danube from Amsterdam to Budapest. This has been an amazing blessing for us as we celebrate our 25th anniversary. As the program director on board our ship said – our cruise could have been featured on the brochures. The weather was almost perfect the whole way and we are leaving with many incredible impressions and new friends.

St Kilian

So many have provided hospitality for us along the way, but as I reflect on our experiences I am currently most aware of those who have gone before us and made possible all that we are doing. They too are our hosts as we travel and we are guests of their welcoming presence. We so rarely recognize them and yet their lives and sacrifices have given all of us the luxuries that we so take for granted – luxuries of clean waterways, electricity, toilets, running water, good and abundant food.

I think of the Celtic monks whom we first met in Iona off the west coast of Scotland. In Würzburg, Germany we met them again as we encountered Kilian and his companions Kolonat and Totnan who evangelized this part of central Europe, possibly having travelled from Iona. They were martyred around 689 but their lives still impact this part of the world. The day after our visit was St Kilian’s feast day, still celebrated in Würzburg with joy. For many Germans, Kilian is a family name, including our good friend Hans Greulich whom we were able to get together with in Passau. His grandfather is called Kilian. 

Castle along the Rhine

As we passed, and then visited some of the castles along the river I thought too of those who endured much hardship throughout the centuries to give us the freedoms we have today. They cultivated crops in harsh environments, they endured epidemics and fought their foes. They lived in ways that we would never endure today. I thought too of those who lost their lives in wars. So many of the towns we stopped at were 90% destroyed during WW II. Reduced to piles of rubble like we are seeing now in Mosul. Amazingly, many of them have been rebuilt not in modern style but as they were before.

I think too of those who designed the magnificent buildings we visited, crafted the mighty organ we listened to in Passau Germany and composed the music we relished in Vienna Austria. Their creativity is a gift of hospitality to us.

I remember too my parents whose frugality provided us with the resources that we have been able to spend on this trip. They too are our hosts. I have particularly felt my mother’s welcoming presence beside me as we travelled. I am her guest here on this trip just as much as I was when I stayed in her house in Australia.

What is your response?

We are blessed people who rarely stop to acknowledge our blessings. Take some time to stop and reflect today on those who have gone before you, gifting you through their labours with life, and freedom and comfort. If possible get out photos of people and places you want to thank God for.

  • Remember your parents and your ancestors and the struggles they went through to make your comfortable lifestyle possible. Offer a prayer of thanksgiving to God for them.
  • Remember those who pioneered your country or the area in which you live. Thank them for their sacrifices and the ways their lives have provided hospitality for you. Offer a prayer of thanks to God.
  • Remember those who sacrificed their lives in wars to give you freedom. Thank them for the gift of life which you enjoy because of their sacrifice.

Freerange Friday: Welcome Mats and Pineapples

by Lilly Lewin
written by Lilly Lewin

by Lilly Lewin

This past week at thinplaceNASHVILLE, our house church gathering we host on Sunday nights, we looked at Matthew 22:34-40 which includes loving your neighbor as yourself, especially looking at the concept of WELCOME.

And in practical terms, we are learning how to welcome and integrate kids of all ages into our gatherings on Sunday nights. Usually we have a half an hour of silence to sit with the gospel passage, journal from the passage, or create art from the passage. We knew in advance that we would have more than our usual two children on Sunday night so we decided to host a thinplace sing-a-long as a part of our gathering so everyone could participate and feel included. And since this is Music City, we are blessed with talented music people who will bring along their guitars and drums and even share rhythm instruments for all of us who don’t play something officially. Our gathering Sunday night included several guests and we ran the gamut from 6 years old to almost 60 years of age.

After a baked potato bar dinner and ice cream for dessert, we gathered in the living room and opened with our candle lighting prayer for God to fill us with God’s hope, peace, joy and love and make us aware of God’s Light. Then we prayed a psalm out loud together.

Then we listened to the gospel lesson read in three versions. Since we had so many kids present, we let a an eleven year old read our lesson from the Whirl Kids Story Bible to start us off. Then we heard the same passage read from The Message and from the NIV version. Three versions and three voices. Listening for the word or phrase that jumped out at us. Since this passage is on the two greatest commandments, LOVE GOD and LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR we talked about starting to love our neighbors by getting to know the people who live next door to us. Starting with those who are closest to us first. We talked about welcome and hospitality.

Who are our neighbors? Do we know them? How can we serve them and practice hospitality and welcome?

I talked about the Pineapple being a long-time symbol of welcome and hospitality. When sea captains returned from their trips to the Caribbean they would put a pineapple on their fence post as a symbol that they were home and it was invitation to come over, grab a pint and hear the stories about his adventures and travels. The Pineapple was also so valuable in the days before refrigeration, that a single pineapple would be rented out by hostesses who wanted to show how much his or her guests were valued. If a whole Pineapple was on the table, you knew that the host had spared no expense. Sadly, only the very wealthy could afford to actually eat the pineapple, not just use it as a decoration.

I passed out pieces of paper that had a printed welcome mat and a picture of a pineapple drawn on them and had everyone consider who in their lives needed to feel the welcome of God and know God’s love? They picked a person to pray for that week. And I encouraged them when they saw a welcome mat out and about in the days and weeks to come, to use that as a reminder to pray for this person or persons.

The Pineapple outline symbolized one tangible thing each of us could do for a neighbor this week to show God’s love to them.

After our singing time, as a closing response to our theme of Welcome, I passed around squares of fresh pineapple to eat and continue our WELCOME theme. We then prayed our closing prayer together and kids went out to blow bubbles and the adults continued to play music and sing.

 

You can do this with your own community or small group or even around your dining table with your family or roommates

  • Have a real welcome mat on the floor as a visual.
  • Print out small welcome mats and pineapple outlines. There are even pineapple post it notes that you can find at Office Depot,
  • Buy a fresh Pineapple and or pre-cut fresh pineapple or even canned chunks to use as the taste symbol of WELCOME as the closing.
  • Have group members write down the person’s name on their printed welcome mat and write down their practical response of welcome and hospitality on the pineapple.
  • Pick a person to pray for this week who needs to know they are loved and welcomed by God. Use the Welcome Mats you see in the coming days as reminders to pray for this person or people.  Also, you can use the Welcome Mats you see to remind you to practice welcome and hospitality to everyone you meet!
  • What tangible thing can you do for your neighbor this week to show God’s love them?
