MATTHEW 10:11 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“And into whatsoever city or town ye shall enter, enquire who in it is worthy; and there abide till ye go thence.”
And whatever town or village you enter, find out who is worthy in it and stay there until you depart. The hospitality strategy: identify a worthy host (one who is receptive and provides a welcoming home) and stay there for the duration of the ministry in that location. The staying in one place rather than moving from house to house (Luke 10:7 makes this explicit) creates stability and avoids the appearance of shopping for better accommodations. The worthy host is the household whose welcome communicates genuine receptivity to the message.
