Synopsis: Heal, mature, and grow together.Too often, our needs are perceived—by ourselves and others—as either burdens to shamefully hide, or idols before which everything else must bow. The Hospitality of Need provides a biblical framework for readers to see their needs as opportunities for deeper, truer community and relationships. Through engaging real-life stories, Kevan Chandler and Tommy Shelton share what can happen when we invite others into our lives—hardships and all. Ultimately, this is a book about friendship . . . the kind that God has called us to live in . . . friendship that goes deep and flourishes, not in spite of our needs but actually through them. This book is for both caregivers and care receivers. It&’s for the wider Christian community that wants to grow in awareness of the needs around them. With the right heart and approach, we can—and must—follow Jesus&’ beautiful call to care for one another. The Hospitality of Need shows us how. Join Kevan and Tommy&’s invitation into a journey that will foster healing, growth, and deeper Christian fellowship.
