Imagine if Evangelicals had as much zeal for the expansive love and compassion Jesus preached as they do for using the Bible to promote violence, hate, and their own petty bigotry.

Let us pray that, walking together as God’s people, we may “witness to the world that love is stronger than death and that life always has the final word.”

The first duty of the U.S. is to protect EVERYONE, citizen, migrant, and immigrant alike.

You know. Like Jesus would do. #WelcomeTheStranger

This, my friends, is how you do it.

Rev. William Barber takes up Mike Johnson's challenge to debate immigration theology (RNS) — Barber made the challenge during a Thursday (Feb. 5) interview for 'Complexified,' a Religion News Service podcast created in partnership with Iliff Institute for Religion, Politics & Culture....

“Let’s talk about what Jesus said: Welcome the stranger. End of story. Case one. Drop the mic. And he didn’t say it to individuals — he said it to the nations.” #RevWilliamBarber #LiveTheGospel #WelcomeTheStranger #PrayForAmerica religionnews.com/2026/02/06/r...

This is a pretty interesting interview, even if the audience is limited. Ezra Klein and James Tarantino #economicjustice #socialjustice #immigration #welcomethestranger #christiannationalism

Opinion | What Would Surprise Jesus About Christmas 2025?

A picture of a ceramic angel that is part of a Christmas nativity scene. The angel is holding up a tiny paper banner which says, "welcome the stranger."

A picture of the entire nativity scene,complete with a wooden stable, the angel, shepherds, 3 kings, sheep, 2 camels, a donkey, cow, and a little dog. The figures are slip cast ceramic bisque that my grandmother painted in 1957. She was a Norwegian-American Lutheran lady from South Dakota, and all of the people in the scene are depicted as white, including Mary and Baby Jesus, who have painted blond hair and blue eyes.

My grandmother made a golden star that hangs over the nativity scene, with "rays" of golden cord that reach from the star to the wooden stable.

I left organized religion a looong time ago, but my daughter brought her great-grandma's nativity scene out of storage, so I set it up. I updated the angel's banner for 2025.

Catholic teaching is clear: every person is endowed with God-given dignity. Policies that demean/ target immigrants & people of color contradict #Gospel ‘Whatever you did to the least of these, you did to Me’ (Mt 25:40) ICE ≠ outrank Christ. St. Susanna's Parish, Dedham MA #WelcomeTheStranger

After 900-mile trek, Chicago priest urges action and empathy on deportations "We need to do more than talk," Fr. Gary Graf said. "We need to engage people in conversation. We need to step into the middle. We need to mediate in a sense."

"We need to do more than talk. We are an immigrant church. We are a nation of immigrants. We need to engage people in conversation. We need to step into the middle." #LiveTheGospel #WelcomeTheStranger #PrayForAmerica www.ncronline.org/news/after-9...

A prayer for Thanksgiving: God of Gathering, We feel you at the kitchen table. Remind us that there will always be space for more guests, even if we must bring out the folding chairs and make space ourselves. Nourish our bodies and hearts with food and community, and let us use this sacred energy to go forth and create a more just, welcoming world. With gratitude, Amen. [Global Refuge logo]

A prayer for Thanksgiving. 💙
