Shawn Smucker joins me to tell a story of friendship. It's a story of unlikely friendship, actually, and one that is beautiful and hard and inconvenient at times. I highly recommend Shawn's book, Once We Were Strangers: What Friendship with a Syrian Refugee Taught Me about Loving My Neighbor.

As Shawn struggles to make a living as a writer, into his life comes Mohammad, struggling to make a new life with his family in a strange new place.  The story is riveting and the struggles real.

This is a podcast that will make you think and ponder a bit.
