This semester I have had the opportunity to study disability theology, specifically focusing on examining the place of persons with intellectual disability in the church. Additionally, this upcoming school year I will be writing my masters on theological anthropology and persons with disability. If you are interested, I have compiled some relevant readings below. Feel free to read along, comment your thoughts, or provide any suggestions for further reading:
