The co-host of the Tribe Exchange Christian Ray Flores was a political refugee in Chile. As a child, Christian and his family spend some time in a refugee camp before being welcomed as an asylum-seeker in Munich, Germany. This single event of being displaced and unwanted in their own country change the trajectory of Christian's life. He has lived in Russia, Mozambique, and eventually to the United States, in many political and socially unstable moments in those countries. He shares his personal experience as a refugee, and how it has informed his apprenticeship to the way of Jesus in today's world.
In this conversation we discuss...
Parallels between Afghanistan and Christian's experience.
The impact political and physical persecution, displacement has on people.
How to view the idea of whether we should welcome refugees through the lens of the Bible
