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.See Rev.

The Bible tells the story of the world, God's people, and God's plan to save the nations. The Old Testament tells the story of the birth, rise, fall, and partial redemption of Israel. The Gospels tell the story of Jesus. Acts through 3 John tells the story of the birth, rise, and spread of the Church. We are, right now, living between 3 John and Revelation.

English joins Nika Spaulding and Rebecca Carrell to talk about what it means to live into Scripture by remembering and rehearsing.Resources and Recommendations:The Drama of Scripture: Finding Our Place in the Biblical Story Find the book HERE.
