How is God using people with impairments on the mission field? That’s a question most of us probably haven’t thought about, but it’s the topic of today’s episode. Listen as host David Jacob talks with Dave Deuel, Senior Research Fellow and Policy Advisor for Joni and Friends and advocate for people with disabilities at the U.N. They discuss the book Dr. Deuel co-edited titled, Disability in Mission: The Church's Hidden Treasure, and how mobilizing people with impairments just might be something we are overlooking. Here are some of the questions we considered: 1. What's your role at Joni and Friends and how did that come about? 2. Can you help us understand the distinction between the terms, "disability" and "impairments"? 3. Please share a couple of stories about how God is using people with impairments on the missions field. 4. What about short-term trips? How have people with impairments participated? 5. In your book, what are some of the common themes you discovered about how God uses disability in missions? 6. What needs to shift in missions mobilization to make room for those with impairments?
