God is at work among refugees everywhere. Will you join?

Refugee Diaspora is a contemporary account of the global refugee situation and how the light of the gospel of Jesus Christ is shining brightly in the darkest corners of the greatest crisis on our planet. These hope-filled pages of refugees encountering Jesus Christ presents models of Christian ministry from the front lines of the refugee crisis and the real challenges of ministering to today's refugees. It includes biblical, theological, and practical reflections on mission in diverse diaspora contexts from leading scholars as well as practitioners in all major regions of the world.

Industry Reviews

Sam George, Miriam Adeney, Chris Wright, and others take on one of the most important issues facing the global church today-the refugee crisis. They humanize refugees by telling their stories and offer a biblical, but clarion call to the church. Jesus was a refugee. He calls us to welcome the stranger. When we do, we welcome God. Refugee Diaspora is an urgent, poignant, and personal book. I couldn't commend this book more highly. Let these words change you.

-STEPHAN BAUMAN, author of Seeking Refugee and former president/CEO of World Relief

For all who claim to be followers of Christ, this book is a timely "must read." To care for refugees is to touch the heart of God. God built the Hebrew nation out of a group of refugees. The incarnate Son was born into a refugee family. Repeatedly in the Scriptures God declares that the measure of a people is how we welcome aliens and refugees. Jesus himself says, "I was a stranger and you welcomed me." Given our era's unprecedented number of refugees and its rancorous debates, this book provides needed insights to shape our attitudes and actions.

-TIM DEARBORN, PHD, former partnership leader for faith and development, World Vision International

Refugee Diaspora presents painful experiences of dislocated refugees in our time. The contributors, however, powerfully argue that the Lord's plan is to transform this people on the move to an army to witness to the God of salvation. The Holy Spirit loves to empower people from the margins, and the book signals another great season of harvest.

-WONSUK MA, PHDdean and professor of global Christianity, Oral Roberts University
