NEW @dallasnews w/ @adrianjashford: As refugee resettlement groups face an unprecedented funding pause, locals try to ‘step in the gap.’ Pending Jan data, almost 2,000 refugees arrived in TX in Nov & Dec, making it a leading hub for recent resettlements. shorturl.at/XMixL

“Doesn’t matter if the funding is there from the government, the funding is not there from the government — as a church, we feel like we’re called to take care of the poor, take care of the strangers and refugees in our neighborhoods,” says @NorthWoodChurch's @scottvenable

One of our training pastors, @scottvenable of @NorthWoodChurch, sees aiding refugees who resettle in his community as part of being a “good neighbor.” The church agreed to help 11 refugees who arrived in North Texas in December. Read more at @dallasnews dallasnews.com/news/immigrati…

We don’t rest because we win or lose elections, we are always co-laboring with Jesus to bring transformation. Are you living and loving like Jesus? Anyone and everyone is always welcome to join @NorthWoodChurch as we imperfectly seek to do just this!

Don’t just vote for transformation! Bring about transformation by how you live! His church is designed to advance His kingdom on earth as it is in Heaven. If your church isn’t doing this then find a Kingdom church because plenty are! Or help your church move in that direction!

To those whose candidate won: Your Messiah is not in the White House but on His throne. To those who whose candidate lost: Your Messiah did not lose but rose victoriously to His throne. Jesus is our messiah. Our redeemer. He is making all things new. Devote your life to Him

Amazed Tucker did this show - not a fan but he’s on target here

Jews, Palestinians, immigrants (even the ones who came here illegally)—all precious people made in the image of God. They’re all currently involved in complex, tragic situations. But however you talk about these issues, and whatever positions you take, if you’re a Christian, I’m begging you to refrain from using language that dehumanizes or demeans them. You can’t worship God while trashing those made in God’s image.
