Welcome to episode 5 of this second season of Transforming Culture! We've got a great episode for you today that starts out talking about a specific topic (immigration), but also dives deeply into a lot of different areas of how Christians should engage with tough issues. Our teacher, Juan Sanchez, brings personal experience to this discussion, but also a ton of professional experience, and I felt personally blessed by getting to talk with him about it. Enjoy the episode!
