Joey Redhead Disability Awareness Service Reflections
Who is the Stranger? A Practical Theology of Hospitality and Friendship

What does hospitality mean in the context of disability?
What does it mean to be a guest in the home of someone with a disability … “one of the tendencies always in relation to disability is that people tend to assume the role of host… “

“…so each time we encounter one another we encounter something of God. So in that sense, every meeting is a holy meeting, every body is a holy place….”
John Swinton: Theology and Disability

The theology of disability really begins by asking a question. What does it mean to be disabled , sometimes profoundly disabled, to be made in God’s image, to be fully human and to be beautiful just the way you are, without having to change anything.

… “Moses has a really terrible speech impediment and God says ‘listen, I’ve got a big job for you here’… What God doesn’t do is say ‘Oh hold on a second, I’m going to heal your speech impediment and then you can go off and do your vocation’… He says ‘I will send people to help you, but nothing of you is going to change’”
