Welcome to Our Table with Shirley and Danae Dobson
According to Shirley and Danae Dobson, co-authors of "Welcome to Our Table," hospitality has become a lost art amid a society where the pace of life seems to be quickening every day. On today’s edition of Family Talk, Dr. James Dobson invites his wife and daughter into the studio to discuss the finer points of gracious hosting. They point to Romans 12:13, which says, "Share with the Lord's people who are in need. Practice hospitality." Discover the delights of God’s love poured out through the breaking of bread with one another, in the comfort of your own home.
