About this episode
The episode discusses the themes of hospitality and holiness as revealed through the liturgies of Shunem and Zarephath.

The readings for the 13th Sunday of Ordinary Time reveal hospitality as holiness, showing how the liturgy of the Mass becomes the most beautiful room God prepares, welcoming every open heart into the Father's household.
