Escuchad al cuento de Doctora Artemiza Hernández, un mentor personal y profesora que he tenido. Hablabamos del inmigración, la iglesia latina y el poder del evangelio. Juntos movemos del silencio a conversación y conversación a acción.

Moving from silence to conversation and conversation to action, together. Join me as I interview Mario Montoya, a pastor at The Rock Church, San Ysidro a border community in San Diego County on the other side of Tijuana. Here is perspective about what ministry looks like in their community, how the border provides a unique mission field, and what multiculturalism in the church can look like. Once again, it seems like it starts by putting yourself out there and risking relationship.

It is complex, it is hard, but it is reformable and doable. Listen in as I learn about immigration law from a local non-profit advocate and DOJ certified law practitioner Bethany Anderson. We get to hear her story, the reality of immigration law in this country & what Christ calls us to do about it. Together we can move from silence to conversation and conversation to action.

Immigration doesn't just come to the USA's Southern Border, listen to stories about movement all around the Americas and what the Holy Spirit is up to. Hear the story of one immigrant, Oscar Merlo, and his perspectives on the movement of people around the continent. Oscar Merlo has served in executive leadership positions for profit and nonprofit multinational organizations. As a practitioner, Merlo has traveled extensively to over 35 countries in five continents and has experienced how God’s Missio-Dei is at work in diverse places. He leads global plans in Evangelism & Transformation initiatives and has participated in social justice advocacy, the Latin America Free of Corruption Initiative and coordinated global leadership training programs.

Listen to the perspectives and insight of these two incredible women who have likely crossed the Mexican border more than 100 times serving the needy in Tijuana. In this episode, immigration moves from ethereal politics to real people with stories.

This is a podcast about being a Christian in America, this is a podcast about immigration, and this podcast refuses to separate the two.
