God is a missionary God. God is also hospitable in his nature. He makes His enemies friends and invites them to intimate communion.

That’s the basis for a new book by CIU dean of Intercultural Studies .

Smither challenges the church to participate in God’s mission today by writing about the importance of welcoming the stranger and making room for others while proclaiming the gospel — that is, to imitate the hospitable God in mission.

Smither discusses his new book, in this . The book is published by Cascade Books.
