![Just Open the Door: How One Invitation Can Change a Generation by [Schmidt, Jen]](https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/51zvcqnXvsL.jpg)
Change a
generation with something as simple as an invitation.
For many of us, inviting people into
our lives and homes feels more
like inviting judgment on our entertaining skills and
stress on our already maxed-out schedules. But what if you knew that opening
your front door had the power to radically change the world? To make an
impact and leave a legacy with everyday invitations?
Jen Schmidt has set out to reframe
how we think about hospitality and to equip us to walk a road of welcome in our
daily lives. Jen knows that every time we choose open-door living—whether in
our homes or by taking hospitality on the road just like Jesus—those we invite
in get to experience the lived-out Gospel, our kids grow up in a life-lab of
generosity, and we trade insecurity for connection.
Just Open the Door is a personal yes-you-can guide to offering the life-changing gift of invitation. Whether you’re a seasoned host looking for renewed inspiration or a nervous newbie not sure where to begin, these personal stories, practical ideas, and poignant insights will give you the confidence you need to see your home as the most likely location for changing the world around you, one open door at a time.

And now, my review:
Wow, Just Wow… This book makes me want to go
out and invite people in… Such a scary
exciting adventure to show Christ’s LOVE in this way. I wish this lady was my neighbor and we had a
street of women pursuing this together and we banned together and went for it
sharing our experiences at each of our houses.
Really that’s what it’s about but we’re just spread all over the nation,
which is a good thing, and maybe there is a community blog or facebook group
where we’re able to share in the successes and struggles. That would be great. Regardless, I suggest you pick up this book
and be ready to be challenged in what it looks like to Just Open The Door to
those God puts in your life.
I received a copy of this book from the
publisher in exchange for my honest review.
