We’re excited to release this bonus episode, featuring our conversation with The Rev. Chris Bishop, reflection author from Episode 10 (titled "A Home for All of Us"), as he shares more about his work with displaced Christian communities in Iraq. Learn about his organization, Stand with Iraqi Christians: http://standwithiraqichristians.org/ ------------------------------------- We also mention in this episode: Mad Priest Coffee (https://madpriestcoffee.com/), a coffee shop and roastery in Chattanooga, Tennessee, whose mission is “Craft Excellent Coffee. Educate the Curious. Champion the Displaced.” They not only educate customers about the global refugee crisis and refugee resettlement, but they also hire former refugees. And - they’re expanding, which means they can grow their mission and their business and hire more New Americans. Check out their Kickstarter: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1813681640/the-mad-priest-coffee-and-cocktails General Convention: Are you going to The Episcopal Church’s General Convention?
