We live in a world of tremendous conflict and as Christians, we are called to welcome those that have been forced to flee violence in their communities. For those of us called into this space, how do we mobilize Christians and advocate to the government for compassionate responses to such crises? We have long-time friend of the podcast Dr. Krish Kandiah on the show today to share what this has looked for him and the spaces God has called him into in recent years. Krish is an author, advocate and the Director of Sanctuary Foundation in the UK. We bounce around from Hong Kong and Ukraine to Sudan and Gaza to pursue God's justice for these global neighbors.

  • Raising awareness and mobilizing churches to welcome refugees
  • The role that sports can play in building community across cultures
  • The plight of Sudan and Haiti and why certain conflicts receive media attention while others don't
  • It's easier to get support for Ukrainians that flee violence as opposed to Sudanese people fleeing violence
  • News is overwhelming, should we even be engaging or is it best to just tune out?
  • A Bible in one hand, a newspaper in the other and praying with our eyes open
