Disability and the Church – A Vision for Diversity and Inclusion, Paperback / softback Book

Disability and the Church – A Vision for Diversity and Inclusion Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

IVP Readers' Choice Award Lamar Hardwick was thirty-six years old when he found out he was on the autism spectrum.

While this revelation helped him understand and process his own experience, it also prompted a difficult re-evaluation of who he was as a person. And as a pastor, it started him on a new path of considering the way disabled people are treated in the church. Disability and the Church is a practical and theological reconsideration of the church's responsibilities to the disabled community.

Too often disabled persons are pushed away from the church or made to feel unwelcome in any number of ways.

As Hardwick writes, "This should not be." He insists that the good news of Jesus affirms God's image in all people, and he offers practical steps and strategies to build stronger, truly inclusive communities of faith.
