Sanctuary is a place but it is also a religious, legal and political principle with ancient origins in the earliest human societies. It is already a fully developed practice in ancient Israel and is the central theme in The Odyssey. Both the Israelites and ancient Greeks shared the idea that any person might be a god in disguise so you are compelled to treat them with hospitality. Any house, every house is a sanctuary where the host extends hospitality to the stranger. Join Alan this Sunday in an exploration of the idea of sanctuary and how it relates to the UUA value of generosity.
