As you’ll hear throughout this conversation, concepts within the field of disability theology are ones that I have struggled and wrestled with for years (even before I knew how to label them). This book, Disabling Leadership, by Andrew Draper and his co-authors is unique in that it covers, not only aspects of disability theology, but it does so in conjunction with leadership studies, specifically in the church. I invite you to listen, wrestle with us, and check out the resources and scholars below who are also contributing and conversing on this very personal and important topic.
