Book excerpt: How the immigration battle plays out in America, from curriculum disputes to federal raids to the civil rights activism of young “Dreamers.” Illegal immigration continues to roil American politics. The right-wing media stir up panic over “anchor babies,” job stealing, welfare dependence, bilingualism, al-Qaeda terrorists disguised as Latinos, even a conspiracy by Latinos to “retake” the Southwest. State and local governments have passed more than 300 laws that attempt to restrict undocumented immigrants' access to hospitals, schools, food stamps, and driver's licenses. Federal immigration authorities stage factory raids that result in arrests, deportations, and broken families—and leave owners scrambling to fill suddenly open jobs. The DREAM Act, which would grant permanent residency to high school graduates brought here as minors, is described as “amnesty.” And yet polls show that a majority of Americans support some kind of path to citizenship for those here illegally. What is going on? In this book, John Tirman shows how the resistance to immigration in America is more cultural than political. Although cloaked in language about jobs and secure borders, the cultural resistance to immigration expresses a fear that immigrants are changing the dominant white, Protestant, “real American” culture. Tirman describes the “raid mentality” of our response to immigration, which seeks violent solutions for a social phenomenon. He considers the culture clash over Chicano ethnic studies in Tucson, examines the consequences of an immigration raid in New Bedford, and explores the civil rights activism of young “Dreamers.” The current “round them up, deport them, militarize the border” approach, Tirman shows, solves nothing.

Book excerpt: Did you know that your dreams and goals are important to God? They are! Actually, they're more important to Him than they are to you. Those dreams that you carry in your heart were put there by your Heavenly Father, and He is more invested in seeing you achieve them than you are! That's good news, because it means you don't have to reach those dreams by yourself. God is ready and willing to help you every step of the way. You might not know how to get from where you are today to the future that you want tomorrow, but God knows, and He has a plan to get you there. In fact, the Bible is filled with examples of men and women just like you who had dreams that they wanted to achieve. Some of those dreams were small and personal. Others were so large they were world-changing. No two dreams were alike, but they all had something in common: God used those dreams for His glory. So join us on a journey through the pages of the Bible as we reexamine the stories of some of the biggest (and smallest) dreamers in history. Learn how these dreamers overcame obstacles, mistakes, and challenges before eventually achieving the dreams that were in their hearts. Discover the Biblical principles that can be learned from their journeys and applied to your life today. And embrace the power that God has given you to chase after and achieve your dreams!
