#disabilitytheology — Public Fediverse posts

My slides from both my #CDS24 presentations are now up on my blog (one on #ADHD & spiritual wandering, the other on #ActivistResearch to resource disabled Christians).

It was a great conference - check out the #CDS24 hashtag at Bluesky and the other place for summaries and ideas from other papers shared there.

Anyone else going to #SST2024 next week? I'm really looking forward to hearing @amv , Carlton Turner and many other great theologians and religious studies bods. (My paper is on Tuesday at 3- 'Healing the Wounds of Ableism: Curative Prayer and the Normative Body-Mind.') #Theology #DisabilityTheology #Religidons

There's now a #preprint available of my #article 'Speaking With Us, Not For Us: Neurodiversity, Theology & Justice' https://osf.io/preprints/socarxiv/2f5sr/ Submitted to the Journal of Disability & Religion for their special issue on neurodiversity & theological education. Watch this space for publication details! #AutismTheology #DisabilityTheology #Autoethnography #Neurodiversity #Autism #CriticalAutismStudies #ReligiousStudies #DisabilityStudies #Papers

Nearly forgot - @emjric and I will be on the St Paul's Cathedral YouTube channel in about an hour and a half, talking about our book #AtTheGates and why we wanted to share the stories and #theology of #disabled Christians. Still time to sign up for the premiere at 7pm (BST), or it will be available for catch-up aftewards - https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/at-the-gates-sharing-the-stories-of-disabled-christians-tickets-634000010097 (I'm hoping to be in chat but might be a bit quiet as spoons are low today) #DisabilityTheology #Religidons #SociologyOfReligion

Call for papers from the Canadian Journal of #Theology, Mental Health and Disability, for an upcoming issue on #Trauma and Resistance https://jps.library.utoronto.ca/index.php/cjtmhd/announcement/view/893 "Has your life or community been impacted by trauma? How do you and/or your communities practice resistance against systematic oppressions that contribute to trauma? What spiritual resources do you have to share with the #mad and #crip communities?" #DisabilityTheology #Disability #CripTheology #MadTheology

I had a great experience recording the Mad and Crip #Theology Podcast this afternoon, talking about my article in the Canadian Journal of Theology, Mental Health and Disability. Journal editors Amy Panton and Miriam Spies will be interviewing authors from the latest issue on the podcast over the next few months (issue can be found at https://jps.library.utoronto.ca/index.php/cjtmhd/issue/view/2304). I'll link when my episode is up! #DisabilityTheology #DisabilityStudies #CripTheory #Religidons

I’m delighted to have a piece in the latest Canadian Journal of Theology, Mental Heath & Disability, reflecting on my experience as a #queer, #disabled Christian who grew up not hearing Bible stories like mine - and how I found them. Looking forward to reading the rest of the issue tomorrow - looks full of great critical work, as always. #DisabilityTheology #QueerTheology #CripTheory #Theology #Neurodiversity #Disability #CreativeArticle https://jps.library.utoronto.ca/index.php/cjtmhd/article/view/39551

A bit on my research... My book (At The Gates: #Disability, Justice and the #Churches, DLT, 2022) is based on PhD research on #disabled & neurodivergent people's experiences of UK #churches & Christian faith. Co-written with participant Emily Richardson for a broad audience -
this was important to me, as the end-point of a participatory research project. Interviews, media articles & reviews: http://naomilawsonjacobs.com/at-the-gates-disability-justice-and-the-churches/ #Sociology #Religion #DisabilityTheology #DisabilityStudies #Cripodon @sociology

Time for my own 'point me to my academics' post: Is anyone aware of people working in (or just interested in) #DisabilityStudies or #DisabilityTheory? I've followed some great #sociologists and a growing group of #religion scholars, but having more trouble finding people from my particular niche. #DisabilityTheology also welcome!
