Discussions on immigration in the social studies classroom have often focused on the political ideologies that frame the debate. Often, the religious and ethical frameworks surrounding immigration are often overlooked. This article provides a rationale for exploring the teachings of the Christian scriptures in relation to immigration, particularly in the U.S. social studies classroom. Though there is a relevance for all denominations of Christianity, there is particular focus on Protestantism. The reason behind this approach is based in Christianity's strong influence on the United States' society. However, it is also a religion where there is often little depth of knowledge and thus a source that can easily be manipulated by those in power. This article examines how teachers can help lead students into an exploration of Christian teachings on the importance of having a stance of compassion toward immigrants and ensuring they receive equal justice. This focus on the Christian teachings of immigration can be relevant for both Christian students, those of other faith traditions, and those who have no faith tradition. Ideally, the students will more thoroughly and accurately understand this crucial intersection of faith and immigration and move toward a just and inclusionary perspective on immigrant rights.
