Evangelical Philosophical Society

Theme: Uncommonly Courageous: Towards an Evangelical Social Ontology of Disability

Friday, 6:30 PM - 9:30 PM

Hilton Bayfront-Aqua 311B (Third Level)

David Mau, Colorado Christian University, Presiding

The evangelical church can and should renew its ethical vision as an alternate community of reconciliation. Within our congregations, persons with disabilities still encounter challenges to attendance, difficult stereotypes, and problematic theologies. Drawing upon phenomenological and philosophical resources, the panel seeks to understand how disability functions within the life of evangelicalism broadly construed. It will also draw upon social ontology as a way to understand lived experience and concepts of personhood and embodiment that can inform faith communities and the broader public about the challenges and opportunities of disability.
