The Gathering Place, a Podcast from Blessed is She

Hospitality isn’t just about hosting dinner—it’s a disposition of the heart. In this final visit of our June series, we’ll explore what it means to welcome the people God places in our lives with open hearts, even when it's inconvenient or challenging. We’ll talk about boundaries, vulnerability, and the holy work of making room for others.Who in your life needs your welcome right now—and what might it look like to receive them as Christ would? Come if you want to love people better without losing your peace or feeling drained.Join us every Tuesday at 1pm ET for The Weekly Visit on the BIS Member Community!

To love is to give, to pour yourself out without reservation. But how do we do that without burning out or losing ourselves in the process? In this visit, we’ll talk about how Jesus teaches us to love sacrificially, and how a woman rooted in Him can offer her life generously—and joyfully.Come if you're feeling stretched thin and need a reminder of why your love matters. Where is God calling you to be poured out right now, and how can you lean on His strength to do it?Join us for The Weekly Visit every Tuesday at 1 pm ET on the BIS Member Community!

Do you ever struggle to see yourself the way God sees you? In a world that is quick to critique and slow to affirm, it can be hard to live with confidence in your God-given identity. This visit is about learning to receive yourself—your story, your body, your heart—with wonder, as a gift created on purpose, for a purpose.What parts of yourself do you find hardest to receive as a gift? What would change if you did? Come be reminded that you are not too much or not enough. You are a masterpiece of the Father’s love.Join us for The Weekly Visit every Tuesday at 1 pm ET in our BIS Member Community (connect.blessedisshe.net)

What does it mean that Jesus is truly present in the Eucharist—not symbolically, not metaphorically, but wholly and completely? In this first session of our June series, we’ll contemplate the stunning truth of Christ’s gift of Himself in the Blessed Sacrament. We’ll visit and talk about what it means to be a woman who receives Him regularly, who hungers for Him, and who allows herself to be nourished and changed by Him.✨ Come if you're longing to fall in love with the Eucharist again—or maybe for the very first time. Join the convo LIVE every Tuesday at 1 pm ET on the BIS Member Community.

As baptized followers of Christ, we are all called to be missionaries! This week, we reflect on what it means to live as missionaries in our everyday lives—whether at home, work, or in our communities. Jesus' Great Commission (Matthew 28:19-20) invites us to go out and make disciples, but it also calls us to live in a way that reflects the love and hope of the Gospel. How can we embrace our mission to share Christ with others, simply by the way we live?How can we be intentional in sharing our faith with others—whether through words, actions, or simply living in virtue? What challenges do you face in living out your faith in a world that can sometimes feel distant from God? Together, let’s inspire one another to live as missionaries right where we are.Join us every Tuesday LIVE in our Member Community! connect.blessedisshe.net
