Download or read book The Bible and Borders written by M. Daniel Carroll R. and published by Brazos Press. This book was released on 2020-05-19 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With so many people around the globe migrating, how should Christians and the church respond? Leading Latino-American biblical scholar M. Daniel Carroll R. (Rodas) helps readers understand what the Bible says about immigration, offering accessible, nuanced, and sympathetic guidance for the church. After two successful editions of Christians at the Border, and having talked and written about immigration over the past decade, Carroll has sharpened his focus and refined his argument to make sure we hear clearly what the Bible says about one of the most pressing issues of our day. He has reworked the biblical material, adding insights and broadening the frame of reference beyond the US. As Carroll explores the surprising amount of material in the Old and New Testaments that deals with migration, he shows how this topic is fundamental to the message of the Bible and how it affects our understanding of God and the mission of the church.
Book Synopsis God’s People on the Move by : vanThanh Nguyen SVD
Download or read book God’s People on the Move written by vanThanh Nguyen SVD and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2014-12-18 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On the highways and byways of every continent, hundreds of millions of immigrants are constantly on the move. Because of growing inequalities of wealth caused by unregulated economic globalization, political and ethnic conflicts, environmental degradation, instant communication, and viable means of transportation, more and more people are migrating than ever before. Crossing international borders, whether compelled or voluntarily, is a major characteristic of our present epoch. No countries or regions are immune from this reality. Facing the growing scope, complexity and impact of the current worldwide phenomenon, God's People on the Move seeks to develop appropriate biblical and missiological responses to the issue of human migration and dislocation. The book is divided into two major sections. Part one, "Biblical Perspectives on Migration and Mission," contains six essays that focus on various biblical themes or texts that deal with migration and mission. Part two, "Contemporary Issues of Migration and Mission," contains six essays that address different immigration issues around the world. The contributors to this volume are women and men from different ethnic backgrounds, working and living on five continents. The internationality of the contributors gives this volume a unique global perspective on migration and mission.
Download or read book Blessed Migrants written by Samuel Lee and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2008-11 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.
Book Synopsis Immigrants of the Kingdom of God by : Annang Asumang
Download or read book Immigrants of the Kingdom of God written by Annang Asumang and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2008-05-28 with total page 127 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Immigration has in recent years become a hotly contested subject in public political and social discussions. Both in Europe and America, there is increased polarization, confusion, and anxiety about how to handle this challenging phenomenon. What has not been adequately discussed during these debates, however, is the influence of immigration on religion in the host countries. The increase in the number of Moslem immigrants in the West has been raised in some publications. However, this book is among the first to examine the impact of immigration on the Christian faith from a biblical perspective. The fact is, in many Western countries today, the future of Christianity is progressively becoming dependent on immigration. Is there any biblical perspective to the phenomenon? What should be the response of Christians to the debate? And how should Christian immigrants themselves interpret their experiences in the light of the Word of God? Asumang examines the lives and experiences of the giants of the Bible to answer these questions. And his conclusions are insightful and challenging both to immigrant and non-immigrant Christians alike.
Download or read book One Assembly written by Jonathan Leeman and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2020-03-26 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many churches are switching to the multisite or multiservice models to manage crowded sanctuaries due to growing attendance. This solution seems sensible in the short term, but too often churches adopt this model without taking into consideration what the Bible says about it. Illuminating the importance of physical togetherness as a way to protect the gospel, this book argues that maintaining a single assembly best embodies the unity the church possesses in Jesus Christ. Jonathan Leeman considers a series of biblical, theological, and pastoral arguments that ask us to stop and examine intuitions or assumptions about what a church is. He reorients our minds to a biblical definition of church, offering examples of churches that have thrived with a single service at a single site and compelling alternatives for those looking to solve the complications that come with a growing church.

Book excerpt: The perfect gift! A specially priced, beautifully designed hardcover edition of The Joy of the Gospel with a foreword by Robert Barron and an afterword by James Martin, SJ. “The joy of the gospel fills the hearts and lives of all who encounter Jesus… In this Exhortation I wish to encourage the Christian faithful to embark upon a new chapter of evangelization marked by this joy, while pointing out new paths for the Church’s journey in years to come.” – Pope Francis This special edition of Pope Francis's popular message of hope explores themes that are important for believers in the 21st century. Examining the many obstacles to faith and what can be done to overcome those hurdles, he emphasizes the importance of service to God and all his creation. Advocating for “the homeless, the addicted, refugees, indigenous peoples, the elderly who are increasingly isolated and abandoned,” the Holy Father shows us how to respond to poverty and current economic challenges that affect us locally and globally. Ultimately, Pope Francis demonstrates how to develop a more personal relationship with Jesus Christ, “to recognize the traces of God’s Spirit in events great and small.” Profound in its insight, yet warm and accessible in its tone, The Joy of the Gospel is a call to action to live a life motivated by divine love and, in turn, to experience heaven on earth. Includes a foreword by Robert Barron, author of Catholicism: A Journey to the Heart of the Faith and James Martin, SJ, author of Jesus: A Pilgrimage
Download or read book No Longer Strangers written by Eugene Cho and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2021-05-04 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What does evangelism look like at its best? Evangelism can hurt sometimes. Well-meaning Christians who welcome immigrants and refugees and share the gospel with them will often alienate the very people they are trying to serve through cultural misconceptions or insensitivity to their life experiences. In No Longer Strangers, diverse voices lay out a vision for a healthier evangelism that can honor the most vulnerable—many of whom have lived through trauma, oppression, persecution, and the effects of colonialism—while foregrounding the message of the gospel. With perspectives from immigrants and refugees, and pastors and theologians (some of whom are immigrants themselves), this book offers guidance for every church, missional institution, and individual Christian in navigating the power dynamics embedded in differences of culture, race, and language. Every contributor wholeheartedly affirms the goodness and importance of evangelism as part of Christian discipleship while guiding the reader away from the kind of evangelism that hurts, toward the kind of evangelism that heals.

Book Synopsis Finding Jesus at the Border by : Julia Lambert Fogg
Download or read book Finding Jesus at the Border written by Julia Lambert Fogg and published by Brazos Press. This book was released on 2020-04-21 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.

Book Synopsis God Speaks to America by : Justus Musyoka
Download or read book God Speaks to America written by Justus Musyoka and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-05 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There has been a paradigm shift in global missions. Many countries that have historically been sending missionaries overseas have now been receiving missionaries from other nations. Over the centuries, the United States has sent missionaries to many countries and helped establish Christianity in those nations. However, a number of critical issues that the American church must address currently face the United States of America. These are, 1) a diminishing Judeo-Christian heritage, 2) increasing de-Christianization, and 3) the rise of ungodly generations. Hence, just as the United States has sent missionaries and been a blessing to other countries, God has for quite a while now been blessing the nation by sending missionaries to America. In this book, Kenyan missionary to America, Bishop Dr. Justus Musyoka, discusses these issues and challenges American Christians to consider seriously praying for the spiritual revival of their beautiful nation. Both he and his wife, Rev. Jemimah Musyoka, who are themselves spiritual fruit of American missionaries to Kenya, are Kenyan missionaries to the United States of America.
