"We go down in humility as we open our lives in hospitality. But why do so few Christians today open their hearts and homes to the non-Christian community? The reason is that they are fearful of being hurt by involvement with others. They do not want the trouble and the risk, the exhaustion that hospitality brings, the struggles with sloth that it requires, and all the rest of the suffering that it entails."
C. John Miller, Outgrowing the Ingrown Church, 87.
