Disability and Justice: Prophets on the Edge

 

Please note, this recording contains issues that some people may find distressing or not suitable for younger listeners.

Disabled people have long been seen as objects of the church’s ministry, outreach and care. Yet many of us are speaking back with a prophetic call for disability justice, in a world and church that can marginalise and silence the voices of disabled, neurodivergent, Deaf and chronically ill people. Naomi and Emily will share stories from the book ‘At the Gates: Disability, Justice and the Churches’ – disabled Christians telling new stories about incarnation, healing, leadership and justice, from the edge of the institutional churches.
