Restorative Justice series; Season of Creation.
Have you ever wondered what God’s ultimate dinner party looks like? The radical hospitality of God’s kingdom is revealed through Jesus’ teachings about a divine banquet, where status and retribution have no place. Drawing from Luke 14, Jesus explains that true righteousness isn’t about religious ritual but about generous justice that welcomes the poor, the disabled, and refugees to places of honour. This timely connection of ancient wisdom to today’s challenges of refugee care and environmental stewardship shows how Christ’s unchanging love transforms our approach to hospitality. The environment encompasses more than climate change; it encompasses all creation, including humanity. We are called to mirror God’s heart by choosing humility and radical welcome—your view of God’s table will never be the same.
This week also marks the beginning of the Season of Creation.
In the Devotional section, we’re following the focus for the Season with a more practical weekday guide, with an activity that is as easy as walking and looking.
