Episode notes

Curtis, Yvonne: Our answer to the anxieties and immigration cannot be a scenario where there's no loss involved. It just involves loss of all for the receiving end on the on the immigrating and things. So we walk through anxiety and depression and how do you reflect that in your lived experience as a believer of Christ? And thank you for being part of that.

One cannot make sense of the deformation of the current conservative movement without understanding immigration. And one cannot grasp the nature of immigration without understanding anxiety. Like most political issues today, the topic of immigration is bathed in anxiety - for everyone on all sides. Curtis draws these connections, with the ultimate aim to show that Christians can uniquely contribute to the conversation about immigration because we have uniquely good news about anxiety. This episode draws from Curtis’ talk at a convening of the National Immigration Forum in Ohio that included local pastors and civic leaders.
