Description

The Middle East sits at a crossroads of migration: millions relocate as migrant workers and students. The history includes numerous periods of forcible displacement. Migration continues to change the region. Arguably, emigration by choice has had a greater effect than forcible displacement.
How is migration affecting religious communities? How are the region’s Christians, as well as others of goodwill, responding to the opportunities created by disruption? Why are Middle Eastern church leaders asking Christians to stay in the region?
This book offers credible reasons why emigration should be the option of last resort.
