Pastor from Iraq tells American church to avoid politicizing refugee crisis
A Texas pastor who fled from Iraq decades ago has urged the Church to avoid politics amid the ongoing debate about travel bans and keep sharing the Gospel to refugees.
Jalil Dawood, lead pastor at Arabic Church of Dallas and founder of World Refugee Care, has just released a new book titled “The Refugee: A Story of God’s Grace on One Man’s Road to Refugee,” where he recounts his own journey as a refugee from Iraq.
