Matthew 8:20 · King James Version

And Jesus saith unto him, The foxes have holes, and the birds of the air have nests; but the Son of man hath not where to lay his head.

Foxes have holes and birds have nests. The Son of man, by his own account, had neither.

Question
Where would Jesus lay his head in your town tonight?
This week
Support a shelter, or make room yourself.

Wednesday · Hebrews 13:2

Be not forgetful to entertain strangers: for thereby some have entertained angels unawares.

We rarely know who we're really welcoming. That uncertainty is part of the point.
