my house is your house.

"there is something so nourishing about sharing your living space with people where they see your junk mail pile and pee wee football schedule on the fridge and pile of shoes by the front door. opening your home says 'you are welcome into my real life.' this square footage is where we laugh and hold family meetings and make homemade corn dogs and work through meltdowns."
-jen hatmaker, 7: an experimental mutiny against excess

let love be genuine. abhor what is evil; hold fast to what is good. love one another with brotherly affection. outdo one another in showing honor. do not be slothful in zeal, be fervent in spirit, serve the Lord. rejoice in hope, be patient in tribulation, be constant in prayer. contribute to the needs of the saints and seek to show hospitality.
