Idol Talk? In the Image of the Disabled God Disability, the Imago Dei and Practical Consequences Join us for a discussion taking up the Synod on Synodality’s recent invitation to deeper theological reflection on disability, human dignity and the Incarnation.

Oh, I forgot to say here! I'm speaking at www.acu.edu.au/about-acu/ev... #DisabilityTheology conference in May! In person and online sign-ups close on 14 May, and financial assistance is available.

Today the church venerates a broken body. A body in pain.

Today I feel Jesus in solidarity with my broken, painful body.

It is a remarkable, awesome thing.

At @pennypullan.bsky.social’s webinar on her research with people w/ invisible illness in churches. Themes incl church harms, ‘disappearing’ from church, being treated differently, only valued for what you do. Really good to see research with specific groups of disabled people #DisabilityTheology

Sure, happy to add -

And the conversations go on, in pursuit of deeper solidarities...

Finally put my presentation for The Lazy Academic as Resistance (to Capitalism) up on Academia. www.academia.edu/126847179/AA... I got a lot of email requests for it, so here you go. I suppose the tags would be #sblaar24 #longcovid #academicsky #disabilitytheology

Beige background with a darker image of the leaves of a plant open and upwards. Text in white on the left reads [dayspring.com] and text in white on the right reads "Word of the year 2025". In the foreground is an oval. The white text reads, "My word of the year is, Create".

I usually find Dayspring's Word of The Year quiz helpful to give me a focus at the beginning of the year. Sometimes, the results are surprising, but no less welcome 1/2 😊

this week I left another church in the same ‘group’ (different sub group) due to the potential for abuse of power by a VERY immature man placed in leadership.

I will add I’m heartbroken to leave another church that didn’t see my value or gifting because I’m #Disabled!

Pacing is sometimes (often) boring, but I’m learning that for those of us with chronic illness is it as honouring to God to use the energy we have wisely as it is to have a sabbath. #chronicillness #disabilitytheology

If You Don’t Want Healing: Reflecting on the Social Model of Disabilities at a Christian Conference | Canadian Journal of Theology, Mental Health and Disability

I have a new paper published based on experiences of inaccessibility in conferencing spaces. You can read it at jps.library.utoronto.ca/index.php/cj...

A blue textured background with the words "Recommended books for exploring Disability Theology" written in the middle. Around the outside are illustrated images of people with various disabilities, including a blind person with a guide dog, a couple talking in sign language, and a person in a wheelchair.

In our recently published Little Resource of #DisabilityTheology we recommended books, podcasts, videos and more to get you started on exploring Disability Theology! Let us know what your own reccs are ➡️

#DisabilityTheology starter pack updated to add the incredible @revdrmiriamspies.bsky.social ! Welcome to BlueSky!

#StarterPack #Theology

Sharing the #DisabilityTheology starter pack again as it was updated a lot in the first 48h after I created it.

I recently met a #Vicar with a very similar disability to myself within 5 minutes of him talking I felt more connected than I have at church in the last few months.

This is why #DisabilityTheology and sharing it with peers is VITAL!
(I’m v tired so this may make no sense)

Two of the many pearls of wisdom from tonight's webinar, on rest as resistance to ableism, with the wonderful Rabbi Julia Watts Belser:

'I am more than my To Do list'

'We deserve communities that hold us even when we don't have anything to give'

#DisabilityTheology

Thank you! hopefully all part of #DisabilityTheology list 😇

Any ideas, examples or blogs from the #DisabilityTheology corner?

I stopped using the other place months ago I’ve missed the #DisabilityTheology Community so I made the list then the starter pack (there’s also a feed but I’ve never managed to get it to work).

If anyone wants adding to the #DisabilityTheology starter pack I just made let me know or if you think I missed someone out of it! (Kinda hard to find people I know other places on here)

go.bsky.app/VBnDiD8

Legit don’t know if this will work I’m not the best at blue sky but I’m trying to make a ‘list’ of users interested in #DisabilityTheology I’ve tried to make a discussion feed before but it never actually functioned so maybe this will work.

bsky.app/profile/did:...

Jesus does not assume or make decisions about Bart or for Bart! Jesus empowers Bart.

So many think this passage is just about physical healing but it has so much depth! #DisabilityTheology

What book on #disability, #disabilitytheology, #queertheology, or #queertheory is on your holiday wish list? Especially if you already have a library copy that you are resisting marking on.

Always my top event of the year! Love the sound of this year’s retreat format. #DisabilityTheology #DisabledLed #CripTheChurch #BlessedWeary
