God calls the church to be a House of Prayer for all people. This challenges us to examine our practices of hospitality which is about creating a welcoming space for others—especially those who have been harmed and excluded. The conclusion of our parable and our series will challenge us to move beyond compassion felt in our guts and look at the compassion of our covenantal relationship with God.

Scripture References: Luke 10:25-37, Isaiah 56:1-12
