g92.org began a year ago with an idea. That idea was to inspire and mobilize young evangelicals to champion the rights of immigrants. With the help of friends and supporters who posted blogs to the site, we were able to bring awareness to current events in the debate on immigration, highlight the injustices families […]Continue Reading →
g92.org launched nearly a year ago. My work at World Relief, and our focus here at g92.org s has been primarily on informing and challenging evangelical Christians’ thinking about the topic of immigration. We believe immigration presents a missional opportunity, a divinely-ordained chance to be faithful to God’s commands to love our neighbor, […]Continue Reading →
Guest Blog by: Emily Guzman Last Christmas, I had to look into the eyes of my son, Logan, and tell him, for the second year in a row, his daddy would not be coming home. You would think that would have made me hate God. For me, it is how I began my relationship […]Continue Reading →
Guest Blog by: Maria-José Soerens In my work with immigrants, there are certain stories that stick with me because they reveal some aspect of God.

Guest Blog by: Amado Lobatos I was born in Mexico and smuggled into the United States in 1976. My father worked for many years in Wyoming as a farm hand. It was a very difficult place to be in that I was always embarrassed to be an illegal Mexican farmhand. After all, I didn’t […]Continue Reading →
Guest Blog by: Kristen Bruce Earlier this year, I helped host an immigration discussion night at my university. We showed a short film I put together of undocumented immigrants and these are a few excerpts from the interviews (for privacy, names have been changed).
Tell the story of how you came to […]Continue Reading →
Guest Blog by: Kirt Lewis I’m a patriotic guy and I can prove it! My evidence goes beyond that of voting faithfully, displaying the flag on appropriate dates at my California home or even getting a bit weepy-eyed (yes I’m man enough to admit it) on the 4th of July as fireworks explode against […]Continue Reading →
Guest Blog by: Melissa Johansen I met Claudia a few years ago on my first trip to El Salvador. Claudia is a 24-year-old Salvadoran, and she is one of the brightest, kindest, most loving, intelligent people I’ve ever met. Life has not been easy for Claudia. She was born during the brutal Salvadoran civil […]Continue Reading →
