As a pastor's wife, seeking to serve people of all kinds and abilities, I found this book a guide. As a follower of Jesus, looking at how Christ loved, helped, and healed people with disabilities, I found this book a gospel-rich resource. And finally, as a former student of Dr. Hulshof, having been a teenage new believer/fly on the wall back when he was grading my Bible verse tests and walking through the pain and uncertainty of his son's diagnosis, I found this book a joy. Dr. Hulshof's book, Jesus and Disability, will be a blessing for parents and church leaders seeking to love and make disciples as Jesus did."" --Scarlet Hiltibidal, speaker, and author of Afraid of All the Things: Tornadoes, Cancer, Adoption, and Other Stuff You Need the Gospel For ""What Chris Hulshof has accomplished in Jesus and Disability is head-turning! Engaging a subject that is generally treated topically, he rightfully places our response to disability where it truly belongs--in the character of Christ. The early chapters laid a methodical foundation for the outstanding 'wait for it' practical applications at the end of the book. Jesus and Disability was solidly biblical, well researched, and incredibly useful. I will be recommending this book for years to come."" --Stephanie O. Hubach, research fellow in disability ministries, Covenant Theological Seminary, and author of Same Lake, Different Boat: Coming Alongside People Touched by Disability ""There are many guides on how to make churches more inclusive for people with disabilities, but not all of them point us to our ultimate example--Jesus. In Jesus and Disability, Chris shows us how Jesus interacted with the disabled throughout the Gospels. We see his care, concern, and compassion, and we also see his inclusion and empowerment. After their encounters with Christ, people with disabilities were welcomed into their faith communities and given a mission to fulfill. The same is true today--our churches can follow his example by welcoming those who are often ostracized and empower them to use their gifts to build up the church. I'm so thankful for Chris's work in this area and the example he provides for us through his research and experience."" --Sandra Peoples, special-needs ministry consultant, Southern Baptists of Texas Convention, and author of Unexpected Blessings: The Joys and Possibilities of Life in a Special-Needs Family """As a mom currently raising a child with disabilities, I found this book a comfort.
