This book examines evangelical responses to immigrants and refugees in the era of modern immigration. It traces evangelical responses to refugees and immigrants from the Cuban refugees in the 1960s to their divided stances on undocumented immigration in the twenty-first century. While evangelicals drew on elaborate Biblical teachings to “welcome the stranger” in their activism, how-and to whom-they applied those teachings must be understood through the lens of their partisan leanings. In telling this forgotten story, The Strangers in Our Midst adds a missing dimension to the public debate surrounding evangelical partisanship.
