Lydia The Host

Begin in silence…
Sit in silence for several minutes with your hands open in a posture of receptiveness. Welcome the Lord into this time with you.

Set the scene…
Today’s story takes us to the city of Philippi, a Roman colony in Macedonia. In Acts 16:9, Paul has a vision that prompts him to travel and his companions to Macedonia. There, they find unexpected circumstances that lead them to engage with a group of women. This is where we meet Lydia.

Today’s Practice: Hospitality

Listen to Acts 16:13–15 as you picture it with your mind.
