The more diversity is recognised, the more people react in a polarising way, determined to protect individual identity. This protection of the self above all else in many cases leads to violent outcomes. In light of this, this edited work is a welcome addition to create awareness of the multifaceted phenomenon that is migration. It cuts to the heart of migration???s impact in real life and provides broad ethical guidelines for all to navigate the tension between the known and the unknown, or unique identity and increasing diversity. It reminds us that, in a sense, all of us are migrants and therefore we have the privilege and responsibility to welcome the stranger ??? if we want to call ourselves followers of Christ. 410 0$aReformed theology in Africa series ;$vVolume 2. 517 $aLife in Transit 606 $aChristian ethics 606 $aEmigration and immigration$xMoral and ethical aspects 606 $aEmigration and immigration$xReligious aspects$xChristianity 615 0$aChristian ethics. 615 0$aEmigration and immigration$xMoral and ethical aspects. 615 0$aEmigration and immigration$xReligious aspects$xChristianity. 676 $a241 702 $aKotze?$b Manitza 702 $aRheeder$b Riaan 801 0$bNjHacI 801 1$bNjHacl 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910476949603321 996 $aLife in Transit$92986596 997 $aUNINA
