Noah has an in-depth conversation with Matthew Soerens of World Relief and the Evangelical Immigration Table on immigration, particularly as it relates to what the Bible says and the rhetoric being used by politicians in this election cycle. Matthew explains what immigration policy is and responds to the primary concerns Americans have about immigration. Noah and Matthew talk about the public witness of the Church during this season of history with the aim of bringing us closer to the heart of Jesus.
