What if true evangelism begins with a warm welcome? In this episode of Native Exiles, we sit down with Danny Franks, pastor and expert on guest services, to talk about why hospitality is not just a program—but a reflection of the gospel itself.Danny unpacks how the early church made belonging a central part of its witness, and how modern churches can reclaim that same spirit of invitation. We'll discuss the theology behind hospitality, the barriers that keep churches from being truly welcoming, and practical ways to create spaces where strangers feel seen, known, and loved.Danny Franks is the Pastor of Guest Services at The Summit Church in Raleigh-Durham, North Carolina, where he helps churches create cultures of genuine hospitality that reflect the heart of the gospel. He's the author of People Are the Mission: How Churches Can Welcome Guests Without Compromising the Gospel and shares insights on ministry and life through his blog, Connective Tissue—a mix of practical wisdom, humor, and honest reflection. Native Exiles is a podcast from Alderwood Community Church, where we talk about following Jesus in the tension of being in the world but not of it.

Then Sings My Soul - Week 1 - Because of God's Presence by The Summit Church
In 1st Corinthians 11 the Apostle Paul gives the local church some important teachings about RESPECT. Respect for times of prayer and Holy Communion. We should not be CASUAL in our approach to a Holy God. Especially when it comes to remembering the sacrifice of Jesus at the Communion Table. Today we'll explore the cultural challenges of walking with Honor and Respect in the local church.

In this Sunday's message from 1 Thessalonians 5:18, Pastor Curtis Andrusko from The Summit Church, presses into the heart behind the holiday. What does it mean to be grateful? Is “giving thanks” only something we can do when life is going our way? And what does Jesus have to do with any of this, anyway?In the end, we'll learn that—because of God's presence with us—both the high times and the hard times are transformed into moments to see God's goodness. Because of that, we can always, always, always say, “Thanks.”

Building off his sermon in Matthew 3 and 4, we'll talk about how Satan's primary battleground is not your behavior—but your belief about who you are in Christ. This episode will encourage you to see yourself through the lens of the gospel and recognize the enemy's tactics before they take root.
