This groundbreaking work explores the intersection of disability and Christianity, revealing the ways in which churches often exclude and marginalize disabled people. The author argues that the church's emphasis on healing and perfection perpetuates a culture of ableism that devalues the lives of disabled individuals. Through personal narratives and theological insights, the book challenges the church to embrace a more inclusive and just understanding of disability, recognizing that the bodies of disabled people are not objects of pity or prayer, but vessels of God's creation and love.
