Laura Murray: Becoming a Person of Welcome: The Spiritual Practice of Hospitality

Join me today as I chat with the beautiful Laura B. Murray who gives us a lifeline to THRIVING! Laura joins Cheryl Scruggs on Thriving Beyond Belief to talk about the deeper meaning of hospitality and why it's about far more than opening your home. Drawing from her book Becoming a Person of Welcome, Laura shares how true hospitality begins with the heart and becomes a spiritual practice of making others feel seen, valued, and loved. In this conversation, Laura challenges the idea of hospitality as performance and offers a richer vision rooted in God's welcome of us. Through stories from her Armenian heritage, everyday community life, and church leadership, she invites listeners to embrace authentic belonging, meaningful connection, and a life shaped by generosity and grace.
