As witnessed in the video, including persons with a variety of abilities in your worshiping community involves a combination of ‘Universal Design/Responsive Design’ as well as the conviction that corporate worship involves the full, conscious, active participation of all worshipers, as a fully intergenerational community.
Universal design for worship help create worship that touches all our senses and is accessible to all worshipers. Responsive design is a process that provides options for including specific persons with an identified disability into full participation in worship, the congregation, and its activities.

A podcast from Calvin University featuring thoughtful leaders discussing key topics related to diversity, equity, and inclusion in the context of Christian life and witness.
Congregations, pastors, and parents/caregivers have many opportunities to join together in worship and prayer practices that more intentionally engage children and help them come to know and love God and grow in faith together. Panelists will discuss ways to intentionally create intergenerational community in which people of all ages, including children, are welcomed as full participants whose participation enriches the community and gives praise to God.
What is the role of preaching in situations of deep conflict and division? How can preaching participate in the Christian call to peacemaking? This panel will explore the connections between gospel preaching and peacemaking efforts.

This session will explore how to talk about differences in Catholic and Protestant worship. Every time we talk with a neighbor, teammate, or coworker from a different Christian tradition about what we do in worship and why, we are practicing liturgical theology.
