Synopsis

Same Lake, Different Boat is a transformational work--designed to renew our minds to think biblically about disability in order that our lives, our relationships, and our congregations might wholly reflect Christ.

Review:

"While ostensibly issuing a call to come alongside individuals and families touched by disability, Stephanie has actually penned a call for the church to reform and to become an inclusive community for all people."

--Joseph 'Skip' Ryan and Barbara Ryan, Senior Pastor and Wife, Park Cities Presbyterian Church, Dallas
"Stephanie Hubach's superb book tells us how to transform the church into a place of hospitality and welcome for children and adults with disabilities and their families. Her heartwarming stories about Timmy and her scholarly discussion of a biblical view of disability make this book both pleasurable and instructive." --Ginny Thornburgh, Director, Religion and Disability Program, National Organization on Disability

"Masterfully and winsomely develops a scriptural framework to help God's people think biblically and live covenantally in all of life, including our response to disabilities." --Susan Hunt, Author and Consultant, Christian Education and Publications, Presbyterian Church in America

"Stephanie's book is well rooted theologically and, to my delight, grows out of a well-formed biblical worldview." --Charles W. Colson, Founder and Chairman, Prison Fellowship
