Disability And Evangelism

Including People with Disabilities Is Essential to Your Church’s Witness

God wants people of all abilities to be active participants in his kingdom. But churches have not always made it clear that people with disabilities are both part of God’s story and fully welcome in their communities. If the church is to be a credible witness, it must reach and include people with disabilities within its evangelism, mission, and everyday life.

In Disability and Evangelism, Rochelle Scheuermann casts a vision for including people with disabilities in all aspects of evangelism, from how we understand and tell the gospel story, to how we evangelize to and with people with disabilities. This groundbreaking book invites us to reshape our evangelism theology and practice so that people with disabilities are central in all we think, say, and do. Scheuermann uncovers how God’s story in Scripture responds to the complexities of disability and provides both the means and message to share good news among people of all abilities. She then explores issues of evangelism practice, including how we understand conversion, an expanded understanding of accommodation, and pursuing interdependence in ministry.

In Disability and Evangelism, you will:

*gain a biblical understanding of both disability and evangelism;

*hear stories from people with a range of disabilities;

*study evangelism practices that go beyond traditional approaches that are key for doing evangelism with and among people with disabilities;

*understand why many people with disabilities feel excluded from and do not attend church; and

*engage with discussion questions in each chapter.

This book shows how the gospel really is good news for people of all abilities. Understanding and embracing disability is not only a matter of compassion and justice. People with disabilities will help the church to counteract faulty visions of power, autonomy, and self-promotion and to encounter the good news of Jesus more deeply. If you’re looking for a resource that invites people with disabilities to be both recipients and active participants in God’s mission, Disability and Evangelism is for you.
