In Start with Welcome, Bri Stensrud answers your most frequently asked questions with thoughtful, honest answers from the starting point of compassion. Engaging this issue starts with one word: welcome"-- "You've seen the headlines. You've watched the TV footage. People around the world are in dire situations and on the move.

It seems as if everyone wants to come to the U.S., and if we're honest, that gives many of us pause. As Christians we're supposed to love our neighbor as ourselves. But we can't stop wondering if we showed welcome to the world, would it change our culture? Would it make us less safe? Would it be a drain on our taxes and local communities?

In Start with Welcome, Bri Stensrud reveals that something is stirring in the American Church. Something much bigger than platforms, politics, and pundits. Something that could literally change the world. It all starts with one word: Welcome"--   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Adult New Books 261.838 St Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kihei Public Library Adult Nonfiction 261.838 St Checked In Add Copy to MyList Waikiki-Kapahulu Public Library Acquisitions --- On Order   in Processing Add Copy to MyList
