From Stardust To Us
From Lawyer to Chaplain: Justice, Refugees, and Intergenerational Healing
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this powerful and timely conversation, we speak with Linda, an attorney-turned-chaplain, whose life has been shaped by advocacy for immigrants, survivors of violence, and marginalized communities.
Due to safety concerns surrounding immigration advocacy, our guest joins us using only her first name.
Drawing from years of legal work and spiritual care, Linda shares her journey from immigration law to ordained ministry, and what it means to hold sacred space for those navigating trauma, displacement, and systemic injustice.
We explore:
- The resilience of Latina immigrants
- The Holy Family as refugees
- Intergenerational trauma and intimate partner violence
- Restorative justice as an alternative to punishment
- How faith communities can move from charity to true solidarity
Linda reminds us that justice and compassion are inseparable and that sacred presence may be one of the most radical forms of advocacy available to us today.
