Matt Collinson: Limping Toward Liberation: Rethinking Disability

What if being "fixed" isn't the point? In this sermon, Matt explores how our narrow definitions of "normal" actually prevent collective liberation. Through the biblical story of Jacob, who received both a blessing and a permanent disability in the same divine encounter, we're challenged to question our assumptions about healing and wholeness.

One in four Americans experiences disability, yet our churches and communities often approach disability as something to overcome rather than embrace. Discover how shifting from a medical model to a social model of disability might transform not just how we see disability, but how we understand God's vision for humanity. What if heaven includes wheelchairs, hearing aids, and all the beautiful diversity of human bodies?
