Warm Up the Welcome


Jennifer Taylor, Contributing Editor of The Christian Standard (and one of my favorite bloggers), recently wrote this article about making visitors feel more welcome. She really seems to have done her homework on this subject and has some good advice for church leadership and welcome ministries with regard to warming up the welcome at the front door and throughout the church building.

While this topic has little to do with Scripture study, I believe it was worth sharing as it addresses our responsibility to welcome the stranger. Mark 9:37, "Whoever welcomes one of these little children in my name welcomes me; and whoever welcomes me does not welcome me but the one who sent me."
