Hospitality or Hostility?

Joshua 24:15 - ...as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.

We've had a piece with that piece of Scripture on it before haven't we?

This really is a great verse, and I don't take any issue with it. What I take issue with is plastering it all over everything in your house.

Like this:


My concern is that plastering this on everything you own might be a little overwhelming, especially for guests who aren't Christians. Not that we should be concerned with what the world thinks, but if you, as a guest, saw this on the guest towels, wouldn't you find it a little...I don't know, confrontational?


Why towels in the first place anyway? Why not the tablecloth, or the shower door, or carve it into the floor? Doesn't it all seem a little Pharisaical?

Anyway, I can imagine my host, as hospitable as they may be, just saying, "As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord, and if you don't like it, you can just get the hell out!! That's right! Just get the hell out, you heathen! You're going to hell, so get out, you sinner!"

At this point, they chase me out the door while the dog nips at my heels and the children fling their tiny shoes at me.

*sigh*

Son in the Sun

As Christians, we should make it our mission to take the gospel to new places everyday. That being said, many thanks to Rainbows and Promises, an online Christian gift store, for giving us a new mission field! The pool and/or beach! So, really, we have two new mission fields!

Yep! That's a towel colored with the plan of salvation! Whoo-hoo! Now hit those beaches and make all those sinners cover up their naughty bits!

Cover up those man-eaters, young lady!

Trying to catch yourself a man?
No ding-ding vizout a vedding wing!


Shame on you, young man, accentuating your giblets like that!

So come June, when you're gearing up for summer fun in the summer sun, take Jesus to the beach! It just might save your purity!
