Universal design is a concept that invites all of God’s people to access the Gospel message and be included in all aspects of worship. Barbara Newman expands on these ideas through a concept called ‘Vertical Habits’ in her book Accessible Gospel, Inclusive Worship.

This presentation was given as part of the Vital Worship Grants Colloquium held at Calvin College on June 24, 2015.
