I Was a Stranger

Ethics, Culture & Social Issues

“Jodie Fondell's I Was a Stranger touches anyone who has ever felt on the outside, yearns to connect in a congregational setting and seeks to make sense of their identity in the world today. She shares personal narratives, integrates theology and Scripture, and applies it to daily life within various congregational contexts. Wherever we serve, Jodie encourages faith communities to live out our vocational call as we find new ways to welcome, include, and love our neighbor.”
