"I was hungry and you gave me food"
A series of personal reflections on the theme of hospitality, inspired by an aspect of Jesus' ministry and Passion.
Lent Talks is a series of personal reflections inspired by an aspect of the story leading up to Easter. This yearβs theme is the power of hospitality, based on Jesusβ encouragement in Matthewβs gospel to feed the hungry, welcome the stranger and look after the sick.
In the first episode of the series, Pastor Mick Fleming describes a traumatic upbringing and troubling past as he considers the words, βI was hungry and you gave me foodβ.
Producer: Dan Tierney.
