Across - Christians acting beyond border disputes - a podcast by Bruce Davis

 

What happens when a group of churches set aside their politics and join together to be the hands and feet of Jesus, to meet the needs of asylum seekers on our southern borders? Find out how strangers become friends, stereotypes are shattered, and lives are transformed.

 ACROSS, a new four-part documentary-series follows the journey of 3 refugee families and the Christians that step up to help. Without political agenda, ACROSS was created after the Maybe God podcast received an incredible outpouring from their episode “Can Loving Illegals Save Our Souls.”
