My favorite Audible book so far
Revisado: 09-03-21
This audiobook was incredible!! In addition to having tons of information, Caroline’s reading made it super fun to listen to. My favorite part was all the advice about what to spend the most money on in your routine.

This book addresses the question from theological, practical, and experiential perspectives, giving individuals and families with disabilities the opportunity to voice their needs and suggest some things the rest of us can do to make them welcome in the household of God.

A mixed experience
Revisado: 04-27-21
I had high hopes for reading (or rather listening to) this book. The sisterhood at my parish read it last year and discussed it via Zoom. I heard really good things, and expected to get a lot out of it as someone with a long-term disability that keeps me from working--and often attending church services!
I thought the author was spot on in calling our attention to disabilities in the church. I would guess my parish has more people with diabilities than average, and I've heard from many fellow parishoners about how hard it is to feel welcome at some churches. The author offers insight into the struggle these people face and gives practical suggestions for how to make worship more accessible. I also like how the author talks about people with disabilities as adding to the worship, not detracting.
I also really liked how the audiobook included all the endnotes! This made the listening experience much richer, and is something I haven't seen many publishers do with audiobooks. It worked really well for this book.
That said, I kept getting irked whenever the author said that disabilities are a gift from God for our salvation. The author talked briefly about privation theory to explain the existence of evil, but she didn't delve deeply into it or tie it back to the topic in a clear way. Instead, she repeated her view that disabilities are a gift, which I found an impossible view to reconcile with my own disability. To me, it's almost as bad as Calvinists saying that God created some people for eternal damnation for his glory.
I think maybe some of the trouble comes down to the nature of disabilities. The author shares that she personally has autism. Even though society might put us both in the "disabled" category, there's a big difference between physical, emotional, and developmental disabilities, and I could see how a book trying to speak to all of them would invariably end up offending someone!
Anyway, like I said, it was a mixed experience reading this book. If you are interested in this topic, either personally or because you want to be a better friend to those with disabilities, it's definitely a worthwhile read. I would just question some of the statements about where disabilities come from and what their purpose is.
