"What would it look like for followers of the Jesus way, for disciples of Christ today, to honor diversity when it comes to brain functioning and mental health? And what would it look like for your church to be a stigma-free zone when it comes to children, teens, young adults, and people of all ages who have neurodevelopmental differences and experience mental health symptoms? And what would it look like for the church to embrace neuroinclusive ministries and celebrate ministers who are neurodivergent? Is the church a safe place when it comes to taking off the mask and letting your neurodiversity show?"This is an excerpt from the highly informative and transformational book Blessed Minds: Breaking the Silence About Neurodiversity. We're discussing that today on The Distillery podcast with its author, Sarah Griffith Lund.
