UMW Book Club: Finding Jesus at the Border

  • First United Methodist Church of Denton 201 South Locust Street Denton, TX, 76201 United States (map)

Join us for a discussion of Finding Jesus at the Border by Julia Lambert Fogg. Immigration is an issue of major concern within the Christian community. As Christians, how should we respond to the current crisis? Interweaving biblical narratives of border crossing and recent stories of immigrants at the US-Mexico border, this accessibly written book invites Christians to reconsider the plight of their neighbors and respond with compassion to the present immigration crisis. Julia Lambert Fogg, a pastor and New Testament scholar who is actively serving immigrant families in Southern California, interprets well-known biblical stories in a fresh way and puts a human face on the immigration debate. You don’t have to read the book to join us for this important discussion.

This book is available to check out in the church library. This book counts for the Education for Mission category for the UMW Reading Program. Contact Karen Anderson-Lain at kanders1313@gmail.com for more information.
