Produktbeschreibung

'Faith in the Shadows: The Other Side of the Fence' investigates and comments on the relationships between God, disability, spirituality, Faith and inclusion, establishing the joyful reality of Faith in God in the life of a disabled person, even in extreme circumstances. It is written from the perspective of the disabled person and their faith statements that we need to hear and actualise within the spiritual life of their church communities. This book proposes a new perspective (definition) of Faith, opening the door to inclusion and expression for disabled people within their faith-based community. 'Faith in the Shadows' encourages us to go through the 'fence' to the other side and discover the true beauty of people who live with a disability, to understand their 'language' and to share their life and Faith with them. In 'Faith in the Shadows,' we gain comfort and hope from its message of God's personal relationship with and love for people with a disability. It is a must-read book for all who care for and love disabled people.
