Have you ever felt a pull to open your home more often — to create a place of connection, comfort, and belonging — but weren’t sure where to begin? In today’s episode, I’m sitting down with someone who has inspired me deeply over the years: Renee Higgins. Renee is a wife of eleven years, homeschool mama to five little ones (including toddler twins!), and a woman who embodies biblical hospitality in the most simple, faithful, and approachable way. She shares practical rhythms, gentle mindset shifts, and the small-but-powerful habits that make welcoming others into your home feel not just doable, but genuinely life-giving.
We also dig into the heart of hospitality — why it matters, how Scripture shapes the way we open our homes, and what it looks like to build a family culture rooted in generosity and presence rather than performance or perfection. Renee’s perspective is refreshing and deeply encouraging, reminding us that meaningful hospitality doesn’t require a spotless home or elaborate meals. It begins with a posture of openness, a willingness to serve, and an understanding that our homes can be a ministry in the everyday moments. If you’ve longed to make hospitality a more natural rhythm in your family’s life, this conversation will give you both the practical tools and the encouragement to start right where you are.
I pray this episode encourages you!
Hugs!
