This week, Pastor Paul Larson features The God Who Sees: Immigrants, the Bible, and the Journey to Belong by Karen González.

It is an especially important book to be reading in these times, as Scripture is filled with stories of people who experience displacement—Ruth, Hagar, Joseph, Abraham, and so many others. Through their journeys, we witness the power of God’s liberating love and the call for all people of faith to walk with and welcome the stranger.
