This week LinC takes a look at the tension surrounding the conversation about accepting Syrian refugees on U.S. soil. Those opposed point to a possible threat; many in favor point to Jesus’ instruction to welcome strangers. Where is a loving balance? Key Scriptures: Leviticus 19:33-34; Matthew 2:13-23; Luke 3:1-11; Matthew 25:31-46. Next week LinC explores how to find and provide community. God created us to connect, so we must learn to approach one another with agape love and embrace others from the heart.
