Making Room for Connection… Kitty Litter and All | Faith Practices: Hospitality

Amy Peterson’s understanding of hospitality—a practice she believes is at the heart of Christian identity—was formed during an experience she had as a 22 year old living in Southeast Asia. More recently it’s been shaped by the details she discovered while researching the Biblical story of Lydia, the university students with whom she shared a weekly dinner, and in the hands of the unhoused man who offers her candy over breakfast. Amy Peterson is a writer, teacher, and priest in the Episcopal church. She lives in North Carolina with her husband, two children, and three cats. <a href="https://discoveryseries.org/product/open-hearts-open-homes/">Open Hearts, Open Homes: The Call for Christian Hospitality</a> <a href="https://bookshop.org/p/books/where-goodness-still-grows-reclaiming-virtue-in-an-age-of-hypocrisy-amy-peterson/502236?ean=9780785290100">Where Goodness Still Grows: Reclaiming Virtue in an Age of Hypocrisy</a> <a href="https://www.scholastic.com/parents/books-and-reading/raise-a-reader-blog/if-you-give-mouse-cookie-cause-effect-examples.html">If You Give a Mouse a Cookie</a>
