Show Notes

On Sunday, Feb. 2, our Eckhardt speaker, the Rev. Dr. Miguel De La Torre, gave the second lecture in his series on Seeing Jesus Through the Lens of Immigration. Listen to his first lecture here.

"When one nation builds roads into another nation, for the purpose of extracting their natural resources and cheap labor, why should we be surprised when those from the invaded nation take those same roads following everything that was stolen from them."

Dr. De La Torre spoke on the history and policies that led to our current immigration landscape and the hopelessness of people caught in a neverending Holy Saturday.

On our sermon podcast, you can also listen to his sermon, "Jesus the Refugee" given later that morning in St. David's Historic Church.
