Inspirational podcast on biblical hospitality

I’m inspired each week by this podcast. The people Bess interviews are normal everyday people practicing biblical hospitality. It’s encouraging and inspiring. I’ve made several of the recipes shared and they’ve been great. I also love the guest’s “must have kitchen items”. It’s like sitting around the table having a conversation with friends!

My favorite podcast!

As a Christian woman committed to hospitality, this podcast has been such a blessing! I’ve tried so many featured recipes that my family and guests love. I’ve lost count of how many tips I’ve learned along the way, even as someone who’s been at it a while. You’ll love it!

Weekly inspiration and encouragement

I’ve been following the podcast from the beginning and have been so encouraged both practically in the kitchen/hospitality and also spiritually over the last couple of years! It’s so fun to try new recommended recipes and also to glean so many quick and practical tips every week. Even my 6 year old has fun listening with me and gets excited to try what we hear about. The website is formatted so that it’s a cinch to find and save recipes discussed on the show. Thank you, Bess!
