“The sheer durability of this pattern—of the American people voting for presidents who promise peace, only to have those very presidents start more wars—is discouraging. Hopeless, even,” writes Bonnie Kristian.

Obtaining some sense of Jesus’ relative concern across the areas of human flourishing—spiritual, physical, social, psychological, and economic—is a helpful conceptual tool in assessing the impact of Christian organizations. From development economist Bruce Wydick:

I served in the Israel Defense Forces, writes Aaron Abramson. After terrorists killed my friend, I fled from God and from my Jewish identity. Then I discovered the Messiah.

A federal judge ruled that ICE can no longer arrest legally admitted refugees in the state, many of whom are persecuted Christians. But damage has been done. Emily Belz reports from Minneapolis:

The Trump administration should be able to do immigration enforcement, argues Bonnie Kristian, without defying the First, Second, and Fourth Amendments—and most of all “without executing people like Alex Pretti in the streets.”

“If we accept dramatic enforcement as the sole solution to America’s immigration problems, we must also accept the ways it will deform the church and our national conscience,” argues Andy Olsen.
