In recent years, there has been a spate of theological work on persons with disabilities . Important questions abound: What do we mean by “disability”? Theologically speaking, is there such a thing as “normal” bodies and minds? How do our churches make room for persons with disabilities? Or do they? What can our churches do differently in worship? What can the church learn from persons with disabilities? These and other questions were addressed by a panel
of church leaders and teachers and those with first-hand experience with disabilities.

Presented by Todd Cioffi at the 2013 Calvin Symposium on Worship.
