The Role of Hospitality in Evangelization

In this third and final episode of Ascension Rountable's Podcast Series on the New Evangelization, Dr. Marcellino D'Ambrosio (aka Dr. Italy) provides further practical suggestions on a key feature of successful evangelization - hospitality.  Whether we wish to evangelize as individuals, families or parishes, we need to understand that people only open up their hearts when we open up our own hearts, lives, homes and churches in a way that makes them feel comfortable, welcomed, and appreciated.  Hospitality not only sets the stage for the gospel but reveals the gospel as Good News of God's loving acceptance and invitation to belong to the Church, the community of salvation.
