“Hospitality is not only external; it’s internal. Hospitality is not only inside of spaces; it’s also wherever we go.” — Laura Baghdassarian Murray
Spiritual director Laura Baghdassarian Murray joins us on the podcast to discuss the place of spiritual hospitality in our everyday lives.
How can we find authentic ways to offer and receive hospitality that can transform our lives? Author and spiritual director Laura Baghdassarian Murray joins us on the podcast to discuss her recent book <a href='https://www.ivpress.com/becoming-a-person-of-welcome'>Becoming a Person of Welcome: The Spiritual Practice of Hospitality</a>. In our conversation, Laura broadens our understanding of hospitality, pointing out ways that our skills in receiving hospitality are just as important as our skills in hosting. This discussion was decidedly not about “entertaining,” but rather about finding that posture within us that welcomes and is welcomed by others through the Holy Spirit. In addition — I’m pleased to tell you that InterVarsity Press is offering a discount on Becoming a Person of Welcome for listeners of this podcast.
