Melissa Borja & What Churches Can Learn From Hmong Refugees

  • Summary

  • Join us in this episode as we talk to Dr. Melissa Borja about what the Christian church can learn to host and welcome refugees.

    She offers advice on how churches can be better hosts to refugees and talks about how her book, Follow the New Way, examines the good and bad of church refugee resettlement. She encourages us to be curious about the stories of why refugees come to the U.S., recognize U.S. complicity, and change our posture from charity to reparations.

    Dr. Melissa Borja is a professor in the Asian/Pacific Islander American Studies Program at the University of Michigan. She researches and teaches about religion, migration, race, ethnicity, and politics in the United States and the Pacific World.
