possibly a preview for this Sunday's sermon.

This Sunday's texts of Genesis 18:1-10a and Luke 10:38-42 both involve God's presence or Jesus coming over to someone's house, and the concepts of God's presence with us and our hospitality. It makes me think of this skit we used to do at Caroline Furnace Camp where I used to work. The skit is called "Jesus is Coming to Dinner," and I guess is loosely based on Hebrews 13:2 - "Do not neglect to show hospitality to strangers, for by doing that some have entertained angels without knowing it," as well as Matthew 25, the verses for this week, and many other biblical images of hospitality.
Enjoy the skit!
