Refugees are not problems to solve, policies to debate or threats to manage. They are people made in the image of God. As Christians, immigration should not be an issue that divides us. We should be united in welcoming the stranger and doing everything we can to restore dignity to people who are fleeing danger and seeking safety in the land of liberty and justice for all.

In this episode, Matthew Soerens helps us understand what’s really happening at a governmental level with immigration, why Christians are divided in this conversation and how our faith should shape the way we people looking for refuge.

Around 40 minutes in, Matt makes a comment about Santa. If you’ve got little ears around, grab earbuds or put this one on pause until they’re no longer listening.
