Face to Face: Meditations on Friendship and Hospitality
by Steve Wilkins
Category: Religion

The heart of Christian reality is a society-a Trinity-of persons living with and for one another. God created us to live in bonds of society and friendship, not as lone rangers. The Christian faith presents friendship and hospitality not as luxuries but necessities. God does not save us in isolation but in community with other people. There is no possibility of living to the glory of God apart from godly companions. In this book, Steve Wilkins seeks to call us back to the joyous obligations of friendship and hospitality.
