"And I think that's what our world is desperately in need of - lovers, people who are building deep, genuine relationships with fellow strugglers along the way, and who actually know the faces of the people behind the issues they are concerned about."
— Shane Claiborne (The Irresistible Revolution: Living as an Ordinary Radical)
How true is this? As I prepare for a sermon on immigration for this week, I'm struck that many persons in this conversation never look at the issue as one of love and of understanding the names, faces, realities behind the talking points. Then again, that's probably the way it is with most issues in the world, come to think of it.
