by Elizabeth J. Browne
- 1 Want to read
In defining a theology of disability/inclusion with the church, [this book, by a blind religious instructor], is a must-read for ministers and pastors. Its impact is twofold - it not only tells how to minister more effectively to the disabled, but it also explains how the disabled can become invaluable contributors to the parish's ministry. [The author] presents guidelines and material to educate and inform readers about the rich potential and special gifts all disabled persons have to offer. Through historic biblical figures, [the author] presents people who overcame disabilities to carry out their own ministries. She also uses church documents and examples from the gospels to illustrate the progress disabled persons have made in the Church throughout history. The result is mutual acceptance without prejudice or stereotypes ...-Back cover.
