Many of us wish to share a meal, share our faith, and share our lives with others. We want to open our home to friends and neighbors for the sake of meaningful community, but we’re overwhelmed with hospitality hang-ups. How do I extend an invitation? What will they think of my house or the food? Our welcome has been influenced by the messages of the world that tell us hospitality is about our ability to be, host, live, and cook a certain way.

In Gather & Give, Amy Hannon inspires you to embrace the simple hospitality of the Bible that values connection more than perfection and people more than presentation. Amy shares scriptural principles and practical ideas to make everyday hospitality a natural, joy-filled part of your life. You will feel encouraged and equipped to view your home as:

• a holy wellspring of welcome to offer hope to a weary world;
• a strategic springboard for ministering to those around you; and
• the perfect platform for influencing others for Christ.

In Daffodils: Beautiful Varieties for Home and Garden, leading garden writer Naomi Slade explores the intriguing history of the genus Narcissus along with its growing and care. Renowned floral photographer Georgianna Lane reveals the breadth of daffodil varieties in a range of breathtaking solid colors and multitoned and ruffled combinations of salmon, pink, peach, orange, and white.

Daffodils are easy to grow as garden plants or container specimens, and their bulbs multiply year after year. Indoors they add brightness and cheer as cut flowers in home arrangements, wedding bouquets, and even large-scale event decor. Plant bulbs fall through January if the soil is workable, for the most joyful spring blooms ever! Daffodils are a popular choice for bouquets, corsages, bridal bouquets, centerpieces, and forced-bloom gifts.

Gracing springtime flower beds and grassy meadows alike, these cheerful trumpet flowers are plants of poetic inspiration and mythic renown, rich with perfume and infused with optimism.
