Download or read book Disability and the Gospel written by Michael S. Beates and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2012-07-31 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Michael Beates's concern with disability issues began nearly 30 years ago when his eldest child was born with multiple profound disabilities. Now, as more families like Michael's are affected by a growing number of difficulties ranging from down syndrome to autism to food allergies, the need for church programs and personal paradigm shifts is greater than ever. Working through key Bible passages on brokenness and disability while answering hard questions, Michael offers here helpful principles for believers and their churches. He shows us how to embrace our own brokenness and then to embrace those who are more physically and visibly broken, bringing hope and vision to those of us who need it most.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Redemption of the Disabled: A Study of Programmes of Rehabilitation for the Disabled of War and of Industry Out of the Great War have grown some permanent benefits to humanity, and among these perhaps the greatest is the prospect of emancipation for the physically disabled individual from thralldom of unhappy circumstance. Prodigal as was the expenditure of men, even through the very squandering of man power itself, the fighting nations came to realize the value of the individual and the strength each individual, though disqualified for direct military service, could con tribute to the common cause and aim. Gradually there dawned a different and more enlightened con ception, based not solely upon the use that could be made of remaining assets of strength or skill left to the injured man, but upon justice to the man himself and to his dependents. This new and revolutionizing conception the United States has been first among the nations to apply in all its broadest significance. The United States has initiated a comprehensive pro gramme for the benefit of and in justice to all its dis abled citizens, whether injured upon the firing line in battle or in civil employment contributing to the general community welfare.

Download or read book Changing Attitudes About Disability How to See People with Disabilities as Our Co laborers in God s Redemption Plan written by Daniel Kyle Vander Plaats and published by Dordt College Press. This book was released on 2020-03-02 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "As an educator deeply invested in inclusive education, and as a mother to an incredible autistic son, I have often wrestled with my own perceptions and attitudes about disability and how they can get in the way of loving my neighbor well, especially my disabled neighbor. Vander Plaats discusses different attitudes we may have about disability and provides multiple resources on how to move along the pendulum from ignorance, to pity, to caring, to friendship, and ultimately, to co-laboring, where we find ourselves in rich reciprocal relationships with disabled people that enables both of us to fulfill our God-given callings. Each step is inherent in our journey and his booklet provides all the support we need to take the first step. Whether you are a teacher, pastor, church member or parent, consider how you view disability and how that impacts your relationships with the disabled and makes your communities inclusive places where abled and disabled people can walk out the path God has placed before them, hand in hand."

Score: 94, 4 Stars--Doody's Medical Reviews What are the differences between individuals with disabilities who flourish as opposed to those who never really adjust after a trauma? How are those born with a disability different from individuals who acquire one later in life? This is the first textbook about the psychosocial aspects of disability to provide students and practitioners of rehabilitation counseling with vivid insight into the experience of living with a disability. It features the first-person narratives of 16 people living with a variety of disabling conditions, which are integrated with sociological and societal perspectives toward disability, and strategies for counseling persons with disabilities. Using a minority model perspective to address disability, the book focuses on historical perspectives, cultural variants regarding disability, myths and misconceptions, the attitudes of special interest and occupational groups, the psychology of disability with a focus on positive psychology, and adjustments to disability by the individual and family. A wealth of counseling guidelines and useful strategies are geared specifically to individual disabilities. Key Features: Contains narratives of people living with blindness, hearing impairments, spinal cord injuries, muscular dystrophy, polio, mental illness, and other disabilities Provides counseling guidelines and strategies specifically geared toward specific disabilities, including "dos and don'ts" Includes psychological and sociological research relating to individual disabilities Discusses ongoing treatment issues and ethical dilemmas for rehabilitation counselors Presents thought-provoking discussion questions in each chapter Authored by prominent professor and researcher who became disabled as a young adult
