Women of Welcome: Christ-Like WelcomeSample
Welcome that Loves
Thoughtful Questions:
1. (Matthew 5) “Enemy” is a harsh word that we usually associate with nations at war with each other. But Jesus brings it closer to home, down to the level of our hearts. Who would you say your enemy is? What would it look like to love them?
2. (Luke 10) Picture a man lying by the side of the road, naked, bloodied, and bruised, maybe even semiconscious. What reasons do you think led the Levite and the priest to still choose to pass by on the other side? What led the Samaritan to stop and help?
3. Consider what it might look like for you to follow Jesus’s words, “You go, and do likewise.”

About this Plan
The welcome of Christ was astonishing to the culture around him. He gave voice to the speechless, frustrated the powerful, and humbled the wise. As Christians, our welcome should be like his– wonderfully surprising, deeply challenging, and firmly rooted in love. This five-week study explores the complicated and beautiful welcome of Jesus toward his most beloved creation, human beings. Jump in with us, individually or with a small group, and let’s transform how we show welcome.
