Kristin Schell wanted to connect with her neighbors and offer true hospitality (not entertainment) in her home, but with her busy schedule she felt like she could not squeeze in one more pursuit. Then when Lowe's delivered two picnic tables for a party she was hosting, God blessed her with the idea of placing one of them in her front yard. Instead of spending time outside in their backyard, Kristin and her family hang out in the front yard at the table. As a result they have met the people residing in their neighborhood and have been able to minister to many different people.
In this book Kristin offers practical, easy advice how to begin this mindset in whatever neighborhood one lives. Recipes and action plans abound!

I first heard about this idea when Focus on the Family featured her on their radio broadcast.
