The Lucky Few

179. Disability & The Church


Listen Later

What happens when our kids with disabilities are rejected from a space that claims to offer acceptance and love to all? Has anyone ever prayed that your child would be “healed” from Down syndrome? Can people with disabilities have meaningful relationships with God? We’re asking some tough questions today that all lead back to this one.. how is disability perceived in the church? No matter what you believe about religion, we hope you join us for this important conversation all about ableism in the church, the savior complex, disability ministries, and so much more. And if you are a churchgoer, we encourage you to assume competence and extend an invitation to everyone in your congregation. Thanks for listening, friends. Let’s keep this conversation going!
