Beschreibung

This book invites readers into a new model of ministry on the margins. Zamora brings lived experience and a pastoral heart to bear in this unique window into the stress, trauma -- and gifts -- of undocumented immigrant communities. He integrates theology, psychology, and practical approaches to develop a new ecclesiology for the immigrant church.
