Immigration is one of the hottest issues of our day yet too few Christians have dared to step away from the political debate and reflect the character of Christ to their international neighbors. Reflecting Jesus in the City pushes urban dwellers, and anyone concerned about the integrity of the message of Christ to pull back the curtain to see what is lurking around the corners of their heart about the refugee and foreigner in their community. You will discover that Jesus himself was surrounded by urbanization and uprootedness and He responded differently than many in our world today. We can have all the right answers politically or legally, but our cities may still see a very distorted image of who Jesus is. It does not need to be that way.The book follows a straightforward format as each chapter identifies a trait or practice of Christ and puts it in historical and contemporary contexts. Using camera imagery (Zoom-In, Zoom-Out, Capture His Image), the title and chapter sections are set up to give readers a chance to look at the words and deeds of Christ in depth, to reflect on the current urban immigrant scene, and to practice the way of Jesus in their own communities. A dual focus on theological reflection and practical application makes the book useful for individuals, ministry teams, and students wishing to appropriately engage with their international neighbors.
