Every Christian community has a common demanding task, a reason for being other than being a community. Scargill as a retreat centre offers the hospitality of God to its guests.

In this third edition of The Scargill Podcast community member and leader Jo Penn talks with Phil Stone (Director) and Ruth Meyer (Kitchen Team Leader) about this hospitality. The youngest community member, Martha Tredwell, is also asked about what hospitality at Scargill means to her.

Scargill is a home and not a hotel, and there are no staff – and so guests are invited to ‘be at home’ with the community, and this is both sacrificial and joyful. The biblical foundations and transformative nature of this hospitality offered in many ways is explored in conversation.
