Simply Wholehearted

The Way of Belonging at Your Wholehearted Table with Sarah E. Westfall

Amy Wicks Episode 379

One of the most powerful ways to stay on the wholehearted journey is by intentionally building a table of relationships that reflect God’s love and support your healing and growth. But before we can discern who belongs at our table, we must first recognize that belonging is not about fitting in—it’s about becoming.

In this episode, I’m joined by Sarah Westfall, author of The Way of Belonging: Reimagining Who We Are and How We Relate. Together, we explore the invitation to move from striving for acceptance to living as people who embody belonging. Sarah also shares practical wisdom on building relationships with intention, knowing when to reposition people at your table, and balancing hospitality with self-awareness.

Episode Highlights:

  • Why belonging isn’t something to attain but something to become.
  • How to recognize when you’re placing expectations on relationships that only God can fulfill.
  • Discernment in shifting relationships—who needs a seat at your table and who doesn’t?
  • Balancing a posture of welcome with honoring your own limitations.
  • How to transition from a scarcity mindset to relational abundance.
