It includes all who are in touch with their own immigrant forebears and who share deeply spiritual hopes for our communal life. Authors Stephen Bouman and Ralston Deffenbaugh observe that ten years after they wrote the first edition of this book, immigration is an even more contentious issue in society and the church, and immigrants are much more vulnerable, mistreated, and blamed than ever before.</p><p><em>They Are Us</em> encourages congregations to engage in the public space with grace and to offer hospitality in an often-alien world. The authors propose that the church, at every level, from local to national to global, work to transform our present polarization and fear and lead to real change. They envision a community that offers a haven for every refugee, a job for every migrant, a home for every immigrant--a vision that is profoundly biblical and deeply faithful.</p><p>Through stories of crisis and hope, <em>They Are Us</em> helps Christian communities understand themselves and their ministries as part of Gods narrative of love and hospitality for the little, the lost, the last, and the least. These stories show there is no greater power to unite our divided, angry, and fearful church and society than the presence of the crucified and risen Christ among us.</p>...3012829They Are Us312329https://www.gandhi.com.mx/they-are-us-9781506464220/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/3116109/92737a85-9157-4849-97b6-9d8146ba7d62.jpg?v=638865630356200000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20209781506464220_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_<p>Although written from a Lutheran religious tradition, the invitation and reach of <em>They Are Us: Lutherans and Immigration, Second Edition</em> is broad and inclusive.
