About this listen

 In this episode, we dive into what it looks like to love our neighbors who are immigrants, internationals, and refugees. Donna Kushner joins us to share insights from her decades of cross-cultural ministry, including time serving overseas and her current work walking alongside refugee families in the U.S. We explore what makes the refugee experience uniquely difficult—from language and housing barriers to navigating complex systems and overcoming loneliness—and why proximity, hospitality, and reciprocity are so powerful in building relationships. We also unpack misconceptions around immigration and offer practical ways to take that first step toward connection, whether it’s offering a plate of cookies, sitting on the floor instead of the couch, or simply learning someone’s name. Donna shares stories that highlight the beauty and resilience of these neighbors and the deep joy of mutual friendship.
