| My original intent in buying a couple of copies of the book was to address the architectural aspect of disabilities within the Church. I was pleased, delighted and enlightened by what I learned about my own blindness and insensivity towards the Disability movement in general. Jennie Block's sensitivity and ability to both "tell a good story' as well as teach awareness is a good beginning in this area. Her vision is bold of what the Church, and Society could be, if others shared this vision and awareness. She offers a "relational Christology" and uses the stories of healing and miracles in the Bible to good advantage. She even confronts traditional Christian concepts about "healing" today and in past years. As a first step, this is a wonderful, and accessible read. For someone investigating the field of interest, she will open your eyes to other adjacent areas. She gives a good history of the Disability Movement, and her analysis of liberation theology is comprehendable and used to good effect. Personally, she made me aware of areas within myself that need work and for that I'm grateful. |
