Refugees, Kingship, and "Who Am I Responsible For?" Listen to Mark Glanville and his brother Luke talk about refugees, kinship, and discuss the question, “Who Am I Responsible For?” Are Christians responsible to help those who have been displaced by war, famine, and economic hardship? In this interview, on the All Things All People podcast they discuss how all throughout the Bible God's people are commanded to put the weakest among them at the center and how this might impact the lives of Christian communities and of nations.
