Grounded in the biblical doctrine of the imago Dei, it challenges traditional views that see disability as deficiency or punishment, instead affirming disability as a unique and valuable expression of God's creation. Key scriptures such as Genesis 1:27, Psalm 139:13-16, and John 9:1-3 provide a framework for understanding disability through the lens of divine intentionality and grace. The paper also engages contemporary theological scholarship and disability studies to propose a shift from exclusion and accommodation toward celebration and empowerment. By embracing the full humanity and spiritual capacity of individuals with disabilities, the church can more fully embody the inclusive love of Christ and reflect the diversity of the Kingdom of God.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Atlantic Books","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46334337155223,"sku":"9798293920518","price":1264.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9798293920518.webp?v=1768671933","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/welcoming-all-creating-an-inclusive-church-for-people-with-disabilities-creating-an-inclusive-church-for-people-with-disabilities-9798293920518","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
