Covenant Lecture

LOVING STRANGER AS NEIGHBOR: THE COMPASSION OF BIBLICAL LAW

In this lecture, Ryan Bonfiglio will examine biblical laws that emphasize Israel’s responsibility to protect and provide for the non-Israelite stranger and how they can inform the way the church today responds to refugees and other marginalized communities. Bonfiglio serves as the Stembler Scholar and Director of Biblical & Theological Studies at First Presbyterian Church in Atlanta. Prior to FPC, he served as a Lecturer of Old Testament at Columbia Theological Seminary.
