In this episode of Neurodivergent Faith, we explore the deeply personal question: How well do we truly know and believe that we are fearfully and wonderfully made? Drawing from reflections shared by a diverse group of neurodivergent friends, we dive into the barriers that can make it challenging to see ourselves as reflections of God’s glory, as described in Psalm 139. Their stories illuminate the complexities of reconciling the truth of God’s creation with the realities of living in a world (and/or church!) that often marginalizes neurodivergent people.

Join us for an honest and compassionate conversation about the tension between knowing we are made in God’s image and the struggles that make it hard to believe it fully.

In the inaugural episode of Neurodivergent Faith, our host, Josh Davis explores the concept of neurodiversity from a faith-based perspective. Neurodiversity, which encompasses conditions like autism, ADHD, and dyslexia, is framed as a natural part of human variation, reflecting God's diverse and intentional design. The episode emphasizes that neurodivergent individuals, like everyone else, are created in the image of God, and their differences are valuable rather than deficient. Josh also introduces the "social model of disability," which shifts the focus from the individual’s limitations to societal barriers, and highlights how Jesus’ teachings on inclusion and dignity align with neurodiversity.
