By Lisa Navarrette, ICC Fellow Persecution doesn’t end when a family flees. Often, displacement is not the conclusion of suffering. It is often the beginning of a deeper economic unraveling. When Christians are forced from their homes by violence, intimidation, or legal pressure, they do not merely lose shelter. They lose land, tools, businesses, professional networks, credit histories, and community support systems. They lose the economic foundation that enabled stability. Displacement strips away more than property. It dismantles generational progress.
