Do you ever wonder about the narrative you are hearing on immigration and immigration policy? Maybe you’ve entertained the following questions:

·      Who is my neighbor?

·      How do I truly love like Jesus?

·      What does the Bible say about immigration?

·      What is really happening at the borders?

·      What is the impact on followers of Jesus?

I’ve been where you are, my friend. It’s one of the reasons I have a hard time stomaching social media these days. Most importantly, I long to know how to legally and Biblically respond to image-bearers who cross our borders.

Today, we have the opportunity to hear from an expert in the field – but she won’t be yelling at us or asking us to pick a new political party. In fact, Bri Stensrud, author of “Start with Welcome: The Journey Toward a Confident and Compassionate Immigration Conversation,” is here today to share the foundations of Biblical Immigration and practical ways we can love Jesus and immigrants formed in his image.

Let’s look to Jesus and God’s Word as we seek answers to our questions.

Xoxo,

Shelly
