Each year the Bethesda Institute holds the Summer Institute on Theology and Disability. If you have any interest in ministry with people with disabilities, you should certainly consider attending. As a bonus, they post presentations from the Institute on their website.

A few months ago I wrote a post called “Human Life in a Liberal Society,” which was related to a lecture that Stanley Hauerwas delivered at the Institute. It was really an outstanding lecture, which I’ll post below. Hauerwas is one of those thinkers who continually challenges us to question the assumptions that we absorb from the culture around us.
