Description
Belonging without Barriers casts a vision of inclusion and full belonging within our churches and other Christian communities for those with additional needs. Brading, Bunyan and Wood begin by exploring the theological basis for this vision, aiming to inspire the reader with Godʼs love for the weak and marginalised in society. They then move into a practical section outlining a range of different conditions we are likely to encounter, including Autism, Learning Disabilities and physical disabilities. Each chapter contains up-to-date research, personal accounts, interviews and a range of specific, actionable ideas, including changes that any individual within the church could make. We will share a vision not just for inclusion, but for full integration and belonging for those with additional needs. Throughout, we will stress that this is a ʻevery believer ministryʼ as we all grow in love together as Christʼs disciples wherever he has put us.
