In this episode of the Jesus Collective Podcast, Paul Walker sits down with Forrest Jenan, creator of the video series Dining with Jesus, to explore how hospitality can become a doorway to genuine, Jesus-centered mission. Rather than treating mission as a program or event, Forrest shares how his local church in California is learning to embody the way of Jesus through shared meals, meaningful relationships, and deep engagement with their neighbourhood. \nTheir conversation moves from the broad vision of hospitality to the concrete practices that have helped cultivate a growing and remarkably diverse church community. They discuss why meals mattered so much in the ministry of Jesus, how hospitality breaks down social and cultural barriers, and what it looks like for ordinary Christians to live with a missionary posture in everyday life. Whether you’re a church leader, a host, or someone longing to love your neighbours more intentionally, this episode offers both inspiration and practical wisdom for becoming a more welcoming and mission-shaped presence in your community.","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/P2wdYpApPb3O5EHSTQGVxiSwFPVptVZlvo2f6gAzQpQ/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9hYjgy/ZTc3ZDVmMTk1Y2Iy/MjZkNWVhZDk2OWI0/MzFkZC5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
