CHALLENGE THE WAY YOU SEE DISABILITY--AND TRANSFORM THE WAY YOU LOVE PEOPLE

In orphanages overseas, Amanda had walked past back corners where children with disabilities were left hopeless and forgotten. Until her son Rusk was born with Down syndrome. Then everything changed.

One in four people have a disability, yet over 80% of churches have no disability ministry. While 99% of pastors believe people with disabilities feel welcomed, more than half of parents say their children have been excluded. The disconnect is real, and the cost is heartbreaking.

Through ten powerful biblical stories--from Blind Bartimaeus to the Great Banquet--this husband-and-wife team reveals God's heart for people with disabilities. Brice, a professor at a Christian college, offers scriptural depth and theological insight. Amanda shares raw, honest testimony from the trenches of parenting two sons with Down syndrome. Together, they show that those we marginalize are the very ones Jesus sought first.

Each chapter includes practical steps, reflection questions, and prayers to guide churches, families, and individuals toward true inclusion. Whether you're a pastor, parent, caregiver, or someone who wants to love better, this book will challenge how you see community--and transform how you create it.

From the back corner to a reserved seat at the table, discover what it means to turn your world Right Side Up.
