For many of us meeting someone new is a scary adventure. It's one of the things that can keep us from loving our neighbor and sharing the love of Jesus with them. Sharing a meal or beverage can be one way to help bring down those difficult walls. Jesus shared many meals with people from all different walks of life. Some of those he shared meals with didn't like that he ate with others. Most importantly though, Jesus knew that he had a message to share that was more important than any fear.
