Kings and queens on mission: the image of God in God’s plan for disability
By: David Deuel and Nathan Grills
Abstract
All people God has called and gifted should participate in mission. After all, he crowned us at creation and commissioned us to care for his creation. The Fall sabotaged the creation mission both relationally and practically. But God’s image abides unchanged. In Christ, God renews us in his mission to redeem people. Also, we are a kingdom of families being renewed. Family support empowers impairment in mission. Our understanding of God’s Image corrects misunderstandings about people with disability in mission. It also increases our capacity to appreciate God’s hand in mission blessing.
