Understanding the Theology of Disabilities

The theology of disabilities explores the concept of vulnerability and how it relates to the human experience. It highlights that God became human and chose to enter into a state of vulnerability, which serves as a foundation for understanding disability. This theology asserts that acknowledging our own vulnerabilities helps to dismantle the barriers that often exist between able-bodied individuals and those with disabilities. By understanding that everyone is inherently vulnerable, the need for empathy and connection with disabled individuals is emphasized.
