Min. To Break Every Yoke As Horizon House, Inc., a homeless day center in downtown Indianapolis, was rebooted, they were determined to find a better paradigm for their service model than either rescue or typical entitlement-based service provision. Through consultation from colleagues they developed practices at every level of our initiative that reflected a commitment to a deep, ancient sense of hospitality. This dramatically changed their approach, practices and outcomes with homeless neighbors. Using Isaiah 58 as a resource, this message will focus on recovering the practice of hospitality in social work. Recorded On: October 31, 2004 Rev.
