What does it mean to embody faith as a community of diaspora? Diaspora teaches us to live out being the church on the margins, on the fringes, in solidarity with all God’s people, and leaning into the promise of God’s liberation and redemption for all. It means the church lives as in between — as a place of porous boundaries that allow for syncretistic expressions of reality and possibility. Diaspora as a place of dissonance teaches us to be open, sensitive, and aware of injustices and inequalities everywhere.
