| Summary: | Examining theological reflection in an age of migration, the author focuses on four foundations of a theology of migration and refugees: (1) Imago Dei: Crossing the Problem—Person Divide; (2) Verbum Dei: Crossing the Divine—Human Divide; (3) Missio Dei: Crossing the Human—Human Divide; and (4) Visio Dei: Crossing the Country—Kingdom divide.
