The Truth in Our Stories
Immigration continues to be a complex and polarizing issue. How can we find common ground? Come listen to "The Truth in Our Stories," hear the voices of people directly impacted by immigration, and then consider how we are being called by Christ to respond.
In The Truth in Our Stories online course, you will explore the complexities of immigration through thirteen online modules, each featuring stories told by immigrants and including theological reflection questions.
