In this episode, we welcome Rev. Dr. Laura B. Murray to explore the transformative power of Christian hospitality. Drawing on her deep theological insight and practical experience, Dr. Murray discusses how hospitality extends beyond social niceties to become a radical, countercultural expression of God’s love. She invites listeners to consider hospitality not as a mere act of hosting, but as a posture of the heart—one that creates space for the stranger, the marginalized, and the weary. Through Scripture, stories, and thoughtful reflection, this conversation challenges us to embody Christ’s welcome in our homes, churches, and daily lives.
