Disability and The Church Seminar (Part One) - Before There Was a Word with Krista Ewert

This is the first of a four-part seminar on disability and the church.

These seminars were the result of a collaborative effort between The Lazarus Centre, @nwcollegeseminary, @fellowshippacific, and this show.

I am sharing these seminars with you because I do not want the discussions of disability we have on Personalist Manifesto(s) to just be theoretical. I want to them to lead to real, practical action.

In the first seminar, my friend and colleague Krista Ewert presents on disability language and rhetoric, because, as you will see, this is a critical place to start when thinking about disability.
