Saved by Faith and Hospitality

Too few Christians today, says Joshua Jipp, understand hospitality to
strangers and the marginalized as an essential part of the church's
identity. In this book Jipp argues that God's relationship to his people is
fundamentally an act of hospitality to strangers, and that divine and human
hospitality together are thus at the very heart of Christian faith.
Jipp first provides a thorough interpretation of the major biblical
texts related to the practice of hospitality to strangers, considering
especially how these texts portray Christ as the divine host who extends
God's welcome to all people. Jipp then invites readers to consider how
God's hospitality sets the pattern for human hospitality, offering
suggestions on how the practice of welcoming strangers can guide the church in
its engagement with current social challenges-immigration, incarceration,
racism, and more.
