About this Item

Paperback. There is a huge need for churches to be more inclusive - some might be more inclusive in some areas than others (both in attitude and resources), but on the whole this is a massive failing of churches. Most church leaders recognise this failing but lack the resources and understanding to effect meaningful change. The Inclusive Church Resources aim to educate, to reflect theologically and to provide practical advice and guidance. Each book contains first-hand personal experiences of people from the marginalised group, a theological reflection by John Hull and a resource section containing addresses, websites and practical advice on improving your church's inclusivity. Disability: The Inclusive Church Resource is written to help your own church to be equipped to welcome all people who live with some form of physical disability. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
