The scope of hospitality as a theological concept, and the importance of the practice to post-Christendom mission has not been subject to in-depth analysis, despite being frequently invoked in Church of England discourse. From feasting in the Hebrew scriptures, and footwashing in the New Testament, to online Communion during the pandemic, hospitality is more than 'welcome', or the evangelistic hospitality of the Alpha Course or Messy Church. Thus, this book encompasses racism, ageing, poverty, tragedy, storytelling, minds, bodies, and belonging, as well as the implications of allying food to Christian formation. Hospitality has relevance not only to mission, but also to ecclesiology, eschatology, disability theology, and social and ecological justice.
