I am so thankful that I decided to read this book. Honestly, I did not know what to expect when I read the title and description. But as a believer who knew next to nothing about immigration laws and how all of this relates to Scripture this book is gold. Obviously, this has been a hot topic in the recent years and an even bigger issue in the most recent election. Throughout this last election I found myself wanting to know more.

The author Sarah Quezada is a Christian who is married to a former undocumented immigrant from Guatemala. Throughout the book, she explains the history and laws surrounding immigration in the United States and through it all weaves in her story and experiences with the immigration system. She ties up everything with our responsibility as believers and backs it up with Scripture.

I would definitely recommend this book. I know there are other books that you can read on this subject, but this one is the perfect balance of story, research and Scripture.

Here are just a few of the quotes I loved:

ÛÏWe are united by our shared humanity. Every person‰ÛÓwith their cultural background, language, sense of humor, musical tastes, and more‰ÛÓgives us a wider view of who God is.‰Û

‰ÛÏWe open our arms to immigrants, documented or not, not on the basis of their purity or deservedness but because of Christ‰Ûªs love for us in our unreservedness.‰Û

So if you are a believer who is interested in this topic at all, go read this book. It will be released on January 16, 2018.

I received a free electronic copy of this book from the publisher and Netgalley in exchange for my honest review.

The combination of research material along with the authors personal story makes this a good account of current U.S. immigration issues.
