There's a high chance that you have experienced mutuality at some point in your life - whether it's sharing a great connection with someone, bonding over a particular interest like sports or hobbies, or sharing past experiences. The truth is, everyone wants mutuality - someone to look across a table from and feel connected to on purpose. In a world where loneliness runs deep, mutuality is a tangible reminder that someone else gets you and sees you.

Pursuing Biblical hospitality with and for others has the potential to bring out the very best of who you are and point others to the very best of who God is. 1 Peter 4:8-11 says, "Most important of all, continue to show deep love for each other, for love covers a multitude of sins. Cheerfully share your home with those who need a meal or a place to stay. God has given each of you a gift from his great variety of spiritual gifts. Use them well to serve one another."
