Das, Rupen
Strangers in the Kingdom Ministering to refugees, migrants, and the stateless Rupen Das, Brent Hamoud - U.S.A. Langham Global Library 2017 - 116tr. Paperback, illustrations 23cm
Today's refugee crisis has engulfed public policy and politics in countries around the world, deeply dividing communities... What does the Bible have to say about migration and displacement and how refugees, migrants, and the stateless should be treated? Strangers in the Kingdom asks why God cares for the displaced, presenting biblical, theological, and missiological foundations for ministries to those who have been uprooted from their homes and all that is familiar. Rupen Das and Brent Hamoud apply their experience and expertise to provide timely answers that the Christian community is waiting to hear. Addressing the humanitarian and legal needs of the displaced is the starting point, but relief, repatriation, and resettlement programs need to help the stranger find a place to belong, a place to call home.
