From monks, nuns, and reformers to great writers such as Chaucher and Dante, people have recognized that the answer is humility a truthful assessment and acceptance of who we are in relationship to God and one another. The key to humility is hospitality the kind arts by which we welcome the friend, the stranger, and even God into our lives.
