Immigration and the Church: From Reactions to Prayerful Action

How should Christians respond to immigration headlines without becoming pundits or going silent

Pastors Warren, Jim, and John walk through the pressure to post, the difference between quick reactions and prayerful responses, leading a diverse church through tension, and what Scripture says about caring for the sojourner and honoring government. They finish with practical paths for faithful change and invite you into a Prayer and Action Team. Link to join the Prayer and Action Team: redtem.in/immigration
