Incorporating Families Experiencing Disabilities into the Rhythm of Small Groups at Saturn Road Church of Christ
Year: 2024
Type: dissertation
Abstract: This project addresses the critical gap in the inclusion of families experiencing disabilities within small groups at Saturn Road Church of Christ. The primary aim is to develop a curriculum that raises awareness among small group leaders about this significant issue. To provide a theological reflection on the necessity of such a venture, I explored the topic through the lens of four theological pillars: the image of God, the incarnation, ecclesiology, and eschatological hope. This exploration revealed several key themes that serve as foundational building blocks for the awareness curriculum. Ultimately, the final artifact is an awareness curriculum designed to inform and illustrate how small groups can fulfill God's desire for inclusion and active participation in the body of Christ. By emphasizing these theological principles, the curriculum seeks to empower leaders with the tools and insights needed to create welcoming spaces that reflect the diversity of God’s creation.
