The God Who Sees

The God Who Sees by Karen Gonzalez is a memoir that explores the author's journey as an immigrant, a Christian, and a woman. Gonzalez shares her personal stories of leaving Guatemala, finding a new home in the US, and discovering her faith in God. She also reflects on the biblical narratives of immigrants and refugees, such as Hagar, Ruth, Joseph, and Jesus. She challenges the reader to see these stories from a different perspective and to recognize the God who sees and loves the marginalized and oppressed.

Gonzalez does not shy away from sharing her struggles, doubts, and questions. She also does not offer easy answers or solutions but invites the reader to join her in seeking God's presence and justice in a broken world. The book is not only a personal testimony, but also a theological exploration of what it means to be an immigrant and a follower of Christ. Gonzalez draws from various sources, such as history, sociology, culture, and Scripture, to illuminate the realities and experiences of immigrants and refugees.

The God Who Sees is a powerful and inspiring book that will challenge and encourage anyone who reads it. It is especially relevant for those who want to learn more about immigration issues, or who want to deepen their understanding of God's heart for the vulnerable and the displaced. The book will make you see yourself, your neighbor, and your God in a new light.
