In \u003ci\u003eThe God Who Sees\u003c\/i\u003e, immigration advocate Karen Gonzalez recounts her family's migration from the instability of Guatemala to making a new life in Los Angeles and the suburbs of south Florida. In the midst of language barriers, cultural misunderstandings, and the tremendous pressure to assimilate, Gonzalez encounters Christ through a campus ministry program and begins to follow him. \u003cbr\u003e Here, too, is the sweeping epic of immigrants and refugees in Scripture. Abraham, Hagar, Joseph, Ruth: these intrepid heroes of the faith cross borders and seek refuge. As witnesses to God's liberating power, they name the God they see at work, and they become grafted onto God's family tree. \u003cbr\u003e Find resources for welcoming immigrants in your community and speaking out about an outdated immigration system. Find the power of Jesus, a refugee Savior who calls us to become citizens in a country not of this world. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Karen González\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Herald Press (VA)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/21\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 200\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.45lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.25w x 0.50d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781513804125\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eGonzález, Karen:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - \u003cb\u003eKaren González\u003c\/b\u003e is a speaker, writer, and immigrant advocate who works as director of human resources for World Relief.
