Is it simply inviting friends over for dinner, or is God calling us to something much deeper? In this episode of Everyday Joy, Ash is joined by Shaylee to unpack one of the Bible's most practical—and most challenging—commands: hospitality. Together, they explore why hospitality was so central to the early church, why opening our homes can feel so vulnerable today, and how fear, comfort, or busyness can stop us from loving others as generously as Jesus calls us to. This conversation isn't about ignoring wisdom or healthy boundaries. Instead, it's an invitation to ask an honest question: Am I living with an open heart? Whether it's sharing a meal, creating space for community, or caring for someone in need, every act of hospitality reflects the heart of God. If you've ever wondered how to live out your faith in practical ways, this episode will challenge and encourage you to take one small step toward loving others with generosity, courage, and compassion.
