The Gospel Comes with a House Key: Practicing Radically Ordinary Hospitality in Our Post-Christian World

4.70 out of 5 stars

Description

In this book, Rosaria challenges us to reexamine our priorities, to take a closer look at the way we live our lives, and to make a conscious, deliberate choice to follow Jesus, no matter the cost. She calls us to stop being afraid of non-Christians, to stop being afraid of our own inadequacy, and to start being afraid of not living a life that is worthy of the gospel of Jesus Christ. She challenges us to reexamine what it means to be a Christian, to reexamine our own faith, and to reexamine how we live it out in our daily lives. Rosaria’s story is a powerful reminder that God still uses ordinary, radical hospitality to bring people to himself. And she challenges us to do the same. Winner of the 2019 Christianity Today Book Award in the Christian Living & Discipleship Category"Get ready to have your world turned upside down in the most refreshing way possible.” ―Ray Ortlund, Lead Pastor, Immanuel Church, Nashville, TennesseeRosaria Butterfield's remarkable journey to faith began with a humble invitation to dinner at a modest home. It wasn't a flashy evangelistic event or a persuasive book that drew her in, but the authentic, everyday hospitality of a Christian couple. This encounter sparked a radical transformation, and Rosaria now invites readers into her own home to explore the power of "radical, ordinary hospitality" in sharing the gospel with others. By embracing the messy, everyday moments of life, we can create a space where others can experience the real, lived-out faith of Jesus Christ. Rosaria's challenge is clear: reexamine your priorities, confront your fears, and make a deliberate choice to follow Jesus, no matter the cost. It's time to stop being intimidated by those who are different and start being afraid of not living a life that reflects the gospel. Through her story, Rosaria reminds us that God still uses ordinary, radical hospitality to bring people to himself, and she inspires us to do the same.
