UL #364: The Heart of True Hospitality (Laura Murray)

belonging hospitality podcast welcome Oct 13, 2025

Hospitality is more than setting a table or opening your home. It’s a posture of the heart—a way of seeing and responding to the people God places in your path. True hospitality flows from God’s generous welcome to us and creates spaces of belonging wherever we go.

In this episode of the Unhurried Living Podcast, Gem Fadling talks with Laura Murray, author of Becoming a Person of Welcome, about moving from performance-based hosting to a transformed life of welcome. Drawing from her Armenian heritage, years in church leadership, and a rich theology of God’s hospitality, Laura offers practical steps for cultivating authentic connection, listening deeply, setting healthy boundaries, and leading others into a lifestyle of welcome.

Whether you’re a ministry leader, a community builder, or simply someone longing for relationships rooted in grace, this conversation will inspire you to carry God’s presence into everyday moments.

Listen in to learn:

  • Why hospitality is a posture, not a program
  • How to reflect God’s welcome in daily life
  • Ways to create authentic belonging without performance pressure
  • Spiritual practices that shape a hospitable heart
