In the 1 Timothy reading, St. Paul expresses God’s ultimate will and desire – that ALL people be saved and come to a knowledge of the truth. That sounds great on paper and in theory, but what happens when we really believe that God wants ALL people to be saved. Think about some of the people in your life, people we hear about on podcasts, people we read about in various new sources, people who are different from us, who believe differently, live differently, people who do evil or terrible things – all of them? Hmmm. We need to talk about this in light of Immanuel’s own mission and vision, a piece of which speaks of “radical hospitality.”
