Unreasonable Hospitality | Others Matter

  • Summary

  • How can we, in our own contexts, prioritise the well-being of others?

    The question is born of what I believe is your deep desire: to put others before yourself. I believe that beneath many layers of cultural sediment, our deepest desire is to regard others' interests over our own, particularly if we practice the way of Jesus.

    Our issue in activating that desire is that our host culture taught us to prioritise ourselves. We have been socialised into self-focus.

    Family, I have been socialised the same way, into the same behaviour. I know that the struggle is real, and very often, I want to put my preferences, interests, and myself above everyone else, even my own family.

    But when we received Jesus and, by the Holy Spirit, adopted His will and way, we were re-socialised out of our host culture and into Jesus’ culture. In Jesus’ culture, we put others first because others matter.
