Shawn Smucker-episode 154
Shawn Smucker joins me to tell a story of friendship. It’s a story of unlikely friendship, actually, and one that is beautiful and hard and inconvenient at times. I highly recommend Shawn’s book Once We Were Strangers: What Friendship with a Syrian Refugee Taught Me about Loving My Neighbor.
As Shawn struggles to make a living as a writer, into his life comes Mohammad, struggling to make a new life with his family in a strange new place. The story is riveting and the struggles real.
This is a podcast that will make you think and ponder a bit.
Check out Church World Services Global that gets mentioned a few times during the podcast. And Church World Services in Lancaster County where Shawn lives.
