Tips for Hosting Kosher Guests

Hospitality: a big mitzvah!Do you know fellow believers who keep a strict, traditional kosher standard? If so, you might be frustrated by the difficulty that poses when it comes to hosting them for dinner. Stricter kosher standards seem to be more and more frequent among disciples of the master Yeshua, although not everyone feels compelled to observe in that way. The result is a huge amount of diversity in kosher observance. This diversity sometimes leads to frustration and conflict.

If you don't feel compelled to have a rabbinic level of kosher observance, but you have a heart for hospitality, then you might be encouraged to know that it is possible for you to provide something for guests, even if they hold very traditional dietary standards.

Please note that this post is not meant to convince anyone to change their kosher standards. It is simply intended to facilitate mutual hospitality and love between believers with different perspectives and practices.
