About this listen

Much of the church has forgotten that we worship a disabled God whose wounds survived resurrection, says Amy Kenny. It is time for the church to start treating disabled people as full members of the body of Christ who have much more to offer than a miraculous cure narrative and to learn from their embodied experiences.

Written by a disabled Christian, this book shows that the church is missing out on the prophetic witness and blessing of disability. Kenny reflects on her experiences inside the church to expose unintentional ableism and cast a new vision for Christian communities to engage disability justice. She shows that until we cultivate church spaces where people with disabilities can fully belong, flourish, and lead, we are not valuing the diverse members of the body of Christ.

Offering a unique blend of personal storytelling, fresh and compelling writing, biblical exegesis, and practical application, this book invites listeners to participate in disability justice and create a more inclusive community in church and parachurch spaces. Engaging content such as reflection questions and top-ten lists are included.

There was so much about this book that I loved but the most helpful and thought provoking parts for me, were the insightful and wise Biblical interpretations. This book helped shift my perspective and think deeply about how I interact with disabled people in my community. What a gift.

I liked that the author looked at the theology of disabilities. I loved that she names all the disabled characters in the Bible and shared how God works through them. I loved the idea that disabilities gave rise to ideas that otherwise would not have birthed like the use of OCR.
