Christ in the Stranger and the Outcast

In these lessons on “Christ in the Stranger and the Outcast” we will look at what Scripture has to say about foreigners and others often relegated to the margins of society. Jesus’s words, “I was a stranger and you welcomed me” (Matthew 25:35) are at the heart of these lessons. Throughout this quarter we will find that care for the stranger and the outcast is central to the good news of the gospel. Through Christ, God welcomes all people to become full kingdom citizens regardless of gender, nationality, health, ability, or status. Those on the outside are welcomed in, and the stranger is treated like family.
