Podcasts about biblical hospitality

Ps Simon Austin. This week we wrapped up our teaching focus on Biblical Hospitality by exploring how the table is a key cog in our faith and community. Jesus is the source — but it's around the table that His love begins to move through us. From Acts 2 to the Emmaus meal, we see that eating together is where community comes alive.

Jenna DiPrima and Sarah Rogers talk with Anna Moore about biblical hospitality, including the gospel motivation behind hospitality, the unique role of a pastor's wife in fostering a hospitable environment, some of the challenges and struggles associated with hospitality, and more. Anna's husband Ed has served as the pastor of North Shore Baptist Church in Bay Side, NY since 1992.

In this episode, Michael and Pastor Eric explore the biblical foundations of hospitality—why it matters and what it might look like in your life today!

We live in a world often defined by borders, fear, and division, but what if we could reimagine migration not as a threat, but as a sacred journey? Today, we're diving into a conversation that challenges what we think we know about immigrants, hospitality, and what it truly means to love our neighbor. I'm sitting down with Isaac Villegas, a Mennonite pastor and author of "Migrant God," who will take us on a transformative exploration of how faith calls us to see strangers not as enemies, but as gifts from God. We'll unpack powerful stories of hope, discuss the biblical foundations of migration, and discover how resurrection life can defeat our culture of fear. From sanctuary churches protecting undocumented families to profound moments of unexpected hospitality, this conversation will challenge you to see the world - and your neighbors - through a lens of radical love. So join us as we navigate how we love our neighbors no matter who they are. Isaac is an ordained minister in the Mennonite Church USA. His pastoral vocation has involved him in community organizing for immigrant justice.Isaac's Book:Migrant GodIsaac's Recommendation:SanturioSubscribe to Our Substack: Shifting CultureConnect with Joshua: jjohnson@allnations.usGo to www.shiftingculturepodcast.com to interact and donate.

Ps John McDonald. Today special guest Ps John McDonald starts a new series for us on Biblical hospitality. Hospitality is a massive industry! For the Christian, it is much more than that. All of us eat meals all the time, but do we consider the powerful significance of this practice? We start our series by looking at what hospitality looks in the Bible.

Has Diet Culture made you feel afraid of eating carbs? Guilty for reaching for bread? Today we are digging into the book of Leviticus to see the value that God puts on consuming bread! This episode will help heal your relationship with carbs, when you start to see it through the eyes of our Lord.Unleavened bread (what the Jews eat during some festivals) is a reminder to them of how God suddenly redeemed their stories. They didn't even have time to to let their bread rise as their freedom from Egypt was HERE! Bread is a reminder that God is a God of miracles and freedom from bondage. Praise God! Choose to see it that way next time you chow down on some bread.

What is Biblical Hospitality?

Biblical hospitality is offering the shelter of God's healing for others. Lord, in this new year may I commit to demonstrate biblical hospitality each day. Worship Check-in→ https://www.tmumc.org/here Online Giving→ https://www.tmumc.org/give 

Today, we delve into the rich biblical tradition of hospitality, as highlighted in Romans 12:13. We'll explore how this practice is not just about sharing our spaces but also about extending our hearts to others in a way that mirrors God's love.Our springboard for today's discussion is: Romans 12:13 (ESV): "Contribute to the needs of the saints and seek to show hospitality." This scripture calls us to actively engage in meeting the needs of others through generous hospitality, reflecting the heart of God.Hospitality is a vital expression of Christian love and a direct reflection of the kingdom of God. Here's how we can embody this gift in our daily lives:Understanding Biblical Hospitality:* More Than Sharing a Space: True hospitality involves more than just opening our homes—it's about opening our lives, sharing our resources, and being present for those in need.* Reflecting God's Love: By showing hospitality, we mirror God's unconditional love and acceptance, offering comfort and community to those who may feel isolated or neglected.* A Powerful Ministry: Hospitality can be a transformative ministry that reaches people's hearts deeply, often more than words ever could.Encouraging Heartfelt Hospitality:* Starting Small: I Encourage you to start with simple acts of hospitality, such as inviting someone for a meal or offering a listening ear.* Inclusive Practices: Discuss with your family ways to extend hospitality beyond your immediate circles to include strangers and those from different backgrounds.* Regular Engagement: I suggest making hospitality a regular part of your life, integrating it into daily routines and interactions.ConclusionHospitality is a profound service we offer in the name of Christ, extending His grace and love to others. As we open our hearts and homes, we create spaces where God's presence can be felt and His love known.A Question of the Day: What is one step you can take this week to practice biblical hospitality in your community?Growth Challenge: Identify one opportunity this week where you can extend hospitality in a new or deeper way. It could be at home, at work, or within your community. Commit to making that connection and see how God uses it to work within both you and those you host.Let's Pray: Lord, help us to embody the hospitality You command us to show. Teach us to open our homes and our hearts to others just as You have opened Your kingdom to us. May our actions reflect Your love and generosity to all we meet. Amen.As we seek to serve and love those around us, let's remember that every act of hospitality is a chance to show someone a glimpse of God's kingdom. Let's step out in faith, open our doors, and more importantly, our hearts. Let's get to work.My Reasons To Believe is a reader-supported publication.

When you think hospitality, do you think of throwing parties and having people in your house? I did too, but that isn't exactly what the bible talks about when it tells us to practice hospitality. You don't need a gift of hospitality to be hospitable. Have you ever watched someone with a gift of hospitality love on others? Maybe you've been loved on by someone with a gift of hospitality.  You can't outdo someone with a gift of hospitality, but you can learn from them. So, what's the big deal about hospitality, anyway? In this episode, Tina discusses biblical hospitality and what steps you can take to obey the command to practice hospitality.

On this episode of The Disciple-Making Parent, we welcome Jason Hsieh as we explore thoughts on biblical hospitality. We dive into the biblical foundations of hospitality, discussing passages from Romans, Deuteronomy, and Hebrews that shed light on this often misunderstood practice. Jason and I discuss the common cultural misconceptions about hospitality, emphasizing that it's not just about fancy meals or social gatherings, but a profound way of showing love to strangers and those in vulnerable positions. We examine how hospitality reflects God's grace towards us and how we can embody this in our own lives. Join us as we unpack the surprising depth and counter-cultural nature of true biblical hospitality.Resources From This PodcastWhy Pursue Hospitality?– Sermon by Jason Hsieh A Portrait of Hospitality– Sermon by Jason HsiehMessage by Chris McGrady on David's hospitality to MephiboshethTopics Covered In This Week's Podcast03:03 What is hospitality?9:35 Hospitality as an implication of the gospel13:52 Biblical hospitality vs. the world's hospitality16:21 Examples of hospitality in Scripture20:51 Personal experiences of hospitality

In this episode of the Raising Godly Girls Podcast, co-hosts Rachael and Natalie explore the power of words and how shifting language norms have played a role in deepening societal divides. They reflect on the subtle ways polarization can infiltrate our lives and how, as parents, we can equip our girls to resist these pressures through a Biblical Worldview. By teaching our daughters to recognize division as a tactic of the enemy, we can help them lean into the unifying power of the Holy Spirit.  Drawing inspiration from Romans 12:9-18, the hosts explore the idea that true Christian unity is rooted in love, humility, and hospitality. They share practical tips for fostering conversations with your daughters that invite understanding rather than division, emphasizing the value of asking questions like, “What do you think God feels about this issue?”  Rachael and Natalie also highlight the importance of demonstrating “radical hospitality,” offering a seat at the table to those with differing views while remaining grounded in Biblical Truth. The hosts discuss real-life examples, including the story of King David and Mephibosheth, as a reminder that God calls us to extend compassion and grace, even to those who might challenge us.  Finally, the episode connects these concepts to the American Heritage Girls (AHG) Program, where girls learn servant leadership through badges like the Identity Badge, All God's Children Badge, and the Social Skills & Etiquette Badge. This year's theme of VISION challenges girls to put on “Godly goggles” and view others the way God does, equipping them to bring unity and peace into their communities.  Tune in for an encouraging discussion on how Christian families can bridge today's cultural divide through Biblical hospitality, unity, and love.

Do we have eyes to see the new relationships that the Lord has for us? What does Biblical Hospitality look like in the Kingdom? Join Tad Fisher (and story by Shelly Fisher) as he continues our current sermon series while looking into Psalm 51:6 and Romans 12:9-13.

In this episode, we discuss the theology behind biblical hospitality and explore practical ways to implement it in our daily lives. True hospitality is not about having a spotless home or serving gourmet meals; it's about building relationships and making others feel welcome and loved, always pointing them to Christ. By keeping hospitality simple and focusing on people over details, we allow genuine relationships to develop. Christian hospitality is a lifestyle, not just a special occasion. It's about serving others sacrificially, even when it's inconvenient. We'll discuss the importance of hospitality in the Christian life and walk through some practical tips for involving our children. Plus, I'll share some simple ideas to keep gatherings stress-free and enjoyable. Join us as we embrace the heart of biblical hospitality together.

Last month I had the opportunity to go to the Mexico/United States border with Women of Welcome and World Relief. A group of friends and Happy Hour listeners joined me and we had the opportunity to gain proximity to those who were living the experience of immigration, as well as meet with pastors, community leaders, and border patrol officers to learn more about this issue. This was my third trip and I still walked away immensely impacted by the stories shared. In this month's bonus series you'll hear from two leaders who led the trip and a few voices from those who attended. On the final episode of this three part series, I have a conversation with the leaders of the trip, Bri Stensrud and Matthew Soerens. Bri Stensrud is an author and human dignity advocate who leads a nationwide Christian women's community called Women of Welcome. The community is dedicated to diving into the whole of scripture to understand God's heart for the immigrant and refugee in an effort to live out biblical hospitality in an authentic way.Matthew Soerens is the Vice President for Advocacy & Policy at World Relief and the National Coordinator of the Evangelical Immigration Table. He's the coauthor of several books including Welcoming the Stranger: Justice, Compassion & Truth in the Immigration Debate and Inalienable: How Marginalized Kingdom Voices Can Help Save the American Church. He lives in Aurora, Illinois with his wife Diana and their four kids.Immigration may be a topic that has been politicized, but I believe it's a topic that is close to the heart of God and should be important to every Christ follower. My prayer as you listen to these episodes is that you'll be filled with questions and the desire to learn more about what God's Word says on this topic. I pray that we are moved to be compassionate and loving to all of our neighbors. SHOW NOTES:The Little LiarGive them GraceFree Family Refugee Guide World Relief, The PathGood Neighbor TeamsWomen of WelcomeMatthew Soerens article on Holy PostWelcoming the Stranger: Justice, Compassion and Truth in the Immigration DebateInalienable: How Marginalized Kingdom Voices Can Help Save the American ChurchSeeking Refuge: On the Shores of the Global Refugee Crisis Connect with Jamie

Bringing true connection in a disconnected world.Whether you are a student, a young adult, older adult, at home, or in the marketplace, there is a place for you in The Garden.When we look at the life of Jesus, we see that he was deeply connected in three different areas: with His Father, with His community (disciples), and with the world around him. As we follow Jesus, and walk in His Way, we find ourselves reconnected to the Father, our community, and our mission.We value being able to make all our content free and available to everyone, as we help people walk in  with God.  If these resources have been a blessing to you, we welcome your donations online at https://app.securegive.com/bridgewaychurch/bridgewaynetwork/donate/category?cats=16565,40162&recurring=true&amts=false,false

KINGDOM LIVING AND LOVING IN BABYLONConsumer or Contributor? – Part 2Springcreek Church | Senior Pastor Keith StewartAugust 27, 2023https://www.springcreekchurch.org/#re... #consumer #contributor #living #loving #babylon #paul #marshill Times have changed. In terms of America's values and beliefs, we are more like the first century than at any other time in our history. For some, this causes a constant pining for how things used to be and sometimes even a sense of hopelessness. But for others, they experience a sense of anticipation and hopefulness because they remember how the church grew exponentially under these same conditions in the first century. Which posture you assume depends largely on your ability to adapt and change to meet the needs of the present reality. This message will show you how.CONSUMER OR CONTRIBUTOR? What lies ahead for us as a church is exciting, uncharted territory. But all of it is fueled by the dream of being God's church in our city.DISCUSSION QUESTIONS 1. Read Acts 17.16-33 (about Paul's visit and message on Mars Hill). Paul's example is perfect for where we find ourselves today in engaging a culture that doesn't see truth or God as we do. What stands out to you about this passage? How does it inform how we share our faith today? What was the result of Paul's preaching (there are three different responses)? 2. Take some time to discuss bounded set versus centered set thinking. In particular, discuss how this plays a role in how we share our faith and how we see those with whom we share our faith. 3. Rob Bell said, “It is when the church gives itself away in radical acts of service and compassion, expecting nothing in return, that the way of Jesus is most vividly put on display.” What needs have you noticed in our community (church, neighborhood, or city) that are being neglected? In what ways can we better serve those needs? Since the need has gotten your attention, what might God be asking you to do to address this need? 4. Learning to listen is one of the hardest lessons many of us learn. But in these changing times, the need to really hear people out, where they're coming from, what's been their life experiences, what they believe and why, is absolutely essential in creating relationships of influence. How has listening changed the way you saw a person, situation, or challenge? 5. Creating space for people in our hearts and lives lies at the heart of Biblical Hospitality. This is especially true as it relates to those who are different from us (nationally, ethnically, linguistically, etc.). What has been your experience with people from other parts of the world? What is the general sentiment toward immigrants in America today? How do we reconcile whatever political views we may have with the clear teaching in the Old and New Testaments as to how we're to treat the stranger among us?6. Tell your own story, the story of how you came to know Christ briefly and succinctly. Now try to do the same when it comes to telling the Jesus story – who He is – why He came – and what He can do for those who trust in Him.

The majority of Americans today would say that no one in their lives really knows them well. We battle loneliness on a regular basis. Our relationships are an inch deep. So, what's at the root of this? It's our own insecurities. Our own brokenness. Because even though we all want to be known and loved, there's something inside of us that makes us hesitate. We wonder if we're actually loveable. So we keep a safe distance.  So, how did Jesus build relationships? His strategy was eating and drinking with others. Seriously, look at the Bible and all the meals Jesus had in community with others! Think of this as Biblical Hospitality. It's the process of turning strangers into friends. And guess what? As Christ followers, we are called to this – to share food, and time, and space, and conversation with others around a table.  This is so much more than socializing. God's table is a hospital. It's where he performs surgery and administers medicine. It's where isolation is healed. It's where hearts are shared. If we would unlock the power of the table, we could heal our loneliness. The Holy Spirit is calling you to live a life of radical hospitality. How will you respond? Watch this message from Pastor Justin Kendrick, and consider how you could use your table for radical hospitality.  #LiquidChurch #RadicalHospitality #PowerOfTheTable #Lonely #Relationships #BiblicalHospitality #GatherAroundATable #HealIsolation #Jesus #Christianity #ChristianChurch

In today's episode, the guys talk about biblical hospitality. As Christians, we have the wherewithal to be the most hospitable people on the face of the earth. In a sense, hospitality is really a reflection of the gospel as it is the Golden Rule in practice. Listen as the guys share their best hospitality experiences. In Scripture, the word hospitality speaks of being a person who has given over by loving other people. The Dictionary defines it as the friendly and generous reception and entertainment of guests, visitors and strangers. God calls on us to be hospitable to everybody, even those we find difficult. Hospitality is meant to be a form of evangelism. The other side of hospitality is discipleship. As demonstrated in the Bible, hospitality is a key characteristic of a good leader. Similarly, Christians showing kindness and hospitality is the best form of advertising.  God does not bless us financially to raise our own standard of living, but so we may have more to give to others. We must not give only from the overflow while keeping the bulk of our belongings to ourselves. Romans 12 says “Contribute to the needs of the saints and sake to show hospitality. This is the way the Christian responds.” The real key to practicing hospitality is to do so without grumbling or complaining. Hospitality does take a certain amount of discomfort. To truly be hospitable means you're going to put yourself in a place of sacrifice and discomfort. The reason why we do it is because Jese was hospitable to us. Even Christ, who was entirely self-sufficient, became dependent on other people's hospitality. All of us have found ourselves in situations where we need someone to lean on for help. If you are in a situation where you don't have much to give, you can turn to God's grace. We must open out homes no matter what, but having a clean and pleasant home helps people to feel comfortable and welcome.  Thanks for listening!

Hospitality: to love a stranger, the different one; the other one. If there is one principle that is at the core of who we are as a house of prayer, it would ultimately be hospitality. Kevin Tipps helps bring our body into this revelation through 1 Peter 4:8, in that the Christian life is meant to be lived out together. As we host the presence of Jesus in the prayer room, we're asking that He would teach us and provoke us to create the same holy place around our dinner tables. Maranatha, come Lord Jesus in our homes.
