Welcoming Hospitality: Stories That Build Bridges in a Divided America (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798385279104)

In a time of deep division, many Christians find themselves unsure how to engage neighbors who feel unfamiliar, different, or even threatening. Welcoming Hospitality offers a different path.

Rooted in Scripture and shaped by real relationships, this book invites readers to rediscover hospitality as a central expression of Christian faith. Through a collection of honest, personal stories from both Christians and Somali Muslims, Adam Cheney challenges assumptions, confronts fear, and calls the church to see others not as strangers--but as neighbors made in the image of God. This is not a book about politics or policy. It is a call to something deeper: a transformation of posture.

Blending theology, lived experience, and narrative, Welcoming Hospitality equips readers to move beyond rhetoric and into relationship--where listening replaces suspicion and presence becomes witness. What might change if people stopped looking past one another and truly began to see?
