For the millions of people who reside outside their native countries, Blessed Migrants shares God's strategy in reaching the changing world through teaching Abraham's four everlasting promises. Dr. Samuel Lee, founder of Jesus Christ Foundation Churches and an international outreach ministry, answers a personal calling to help migrants understand the important role they play in the kingdom of God and to encourage revivals in their hosting nations. By discussing the history of migrants through Biblical stories, he illustrates how today migrants can becomes an instrument of love and a blessing to others-literally transforming themselves into modern-day Abrahams, Josephs, Jacobs and Ruths. Dr. Lee also focuses on the biblical conditions that must be realized in order for current migrants to be blessed and how a Christian migrant can successfully interact with other cultures and host nations. Several migrant-exporting nations are described including the Philippines, Africa, and Korea. Abraham was a migrant and pioneer of faith who dutifully followed the Lord's command. The blessings he received from God still to this day remain inspiration for migrants who want to make a global impact through the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

"God has used migration for millennia to achieve his purposes for his people," writes Patrick Johnstone. "He is doing so again in our time." Millions are on the move, driven by war, drought, terrorism, poverty, failed states, environmental catastrophes, disease, revolutions, and the desire for a better life. Christians have a unique perspective on the migrant crisis: after all, Jesus was a refugee. So were Abraham, Joseph, and Moses. Today, some turn their backs on refugees. In Serving God in a Migrant Crisis, Patrick Johnstone and Dean Merrill help us understand what's causing today's refugee crisis, explore Christian theology and tradition on migration, and show us how Christian workers around the globe are opening their hearts to embrace these modern outcasts. "The world has literally come to our doorstep," they write. "Will we open the door?"

Meet people who have fled their homelands. Hagar. Joseph. Ruth. Jesus. Here is a riveting story of seeking safety in another land. Here is a gripping journey of loss, alienation, and belonging. In The God Who Sees, immigration advocate Karen Gonzalez recounts her family’s migration from the instability of Guatemala to making a new life in Los Angeles and the suburbs of south Florida. In the midst of language barriers, cultural misunderstandings, and the tremendous pressure to assimilate, Gonzalez encounters Christ through a campus ministry program and begins to follow him. Here, too, is the sweeping epic of immigrants and refugees in Scripture. Abraham, Hagar, Joseph, Ruth: these intrepid heroes of the faith cross borders and seek refuge. As witnesses to God’s liberating power, they name the God they see at work, and they become grafted onto God’s family tree. Find resources for welcoming immigrants in your community and speaking out about an outdated immigration system. Find the power of Jesus, a refugee Savior who calls us to become citizens in a country not of this world.

Immigration is an issue of major concern within the Christian community. As Christians, how should we respond to the current crisis? Interweaving biblical narratives of border crossing and recent stories of immigrants at the US-Mexico border, this accessibly written book invites Christians to reconsider the plight of their neighbors and respond with compassion to the present immigration crisis. Julia Lambert Fogg, a pastor and New Testament scholar who is actively serving immigrant families in Southern California, interprets well-known biblical stories in a fresh way and puts a human face on the immigration debate. Fogg argues that Christians must step out of their comfort zones and learn to cross social, ethnic, and religious borders--just as Jesus did--to become the body of Christ in the world. She encourages readers to welcome Christ by embracing DREAMers, the undocumented, asylum seekers, and immigrants, and she inspires Christians to advocate for immigrant justice in their communities.

If most of the world lives in cities and God loves the world, we have to figure out what it means to reflect Jesus there. Much of the world has come to the gates of American cities, and we want to walk and dwell among its people just as Christ modeled. Understanding the tremendous opportunity and holy privilege before us, we long to demonstrate and announce his beautiful Kingdom in the heart of the city in order that the glory of God be visible to our neighbors. Jesus stepped into neighborhoods in and around Jerusalem and showed his disciples how to live. Through the life of Christ, we learn what it means to be salt and light, to bear truth and hope. Regardless of our background or how we got to the city, we are here. Some of us have come by choice, others by default. The mission of Jesus and the call of God remain.

Migration is an issue that is under discussion worldwide and affects South Africa, the United States of America and Germany in a distinctive way. This book reflects academically on this significant and topical subject of migration from the often neglected perspective of the fields of theology and Christian ethics. While the majority of contributions are from the South African context, there are also chapters reflecting on the topic from the other two aforementioned contexts. While numerous publications have recently appeared on the subject, reflection from theology and Christian ethics are often lacking. As such, this scholarly publication wants to add ethical value to the local and global conversations on the theme from a theological perspective. The book reflects on migration from the perspectives originated in the disciplines of biblical studies (the Hebrew Bible and the New Testament), systematic theology, ecumenical studies, Christian ethics, practical theology, and missiology. It presents new and innovative inquiries primarily from a qualitative methodological viewpoint. The book unveils new themes for deliberation and provides novel interpretations and insights into existing research.

Have you ever wondered what it's like to be an immigrant living in a foreign land or a refugee fleeing from war, violence, or natural disaster? I know, for I am one. Being an immigrant and a refugee was not easy, but it has taught me many lessons. One is the importance of being in solidarity with the millions of people who are displaced all over the globe. Although my parents originally came from North Viet Nam, I was actually born and raised in the South of my homeland.
