Beyond the headlines, immigration is a deeply human and spiritual issue. In this episode, we explore what it means to welcome the stranger, seek justice, and build beloved communities—even amid complex political and economic systems. Our guest, Kit Danley, founder of Neighborhood Ministries, shares on-the-ground stories and insights into the local impact of immigration policy. We examine how profit and politics drive mass deportation, and how emerging technologies—including AI—are reshaping the landscape. Rooted in Jesus’ call to love our neighbor and Black historic experience with exclusion and criminalization, this conversation challenges dehumanization and calls us to respond with proximity, dignity, and action—both nationally and on our own blocks.
