With Christians sitting on all sides of all possible opinions, this episode of GodPod sees Graham, Jane, and Mike joined by specialist, Dr Barnabas Aspray. Join them as they dig into some of the theology of migration.

Barnabas is Assistant Professor of Systematic Theology, at St Mary's Seminary & University, Baltimore. Find out more about his research interests.
