Your way of being reflects the unique image of God in you. To be our best, we desperately need each other. This means we must value and include those who are typically disenfranchised. If we do not embrace the uniquene value of every human, we cease to be human. When it comes to disability, there is no "we" and "they", it is only "us ourselves." If the church does not lead this charge, it will become irrelevant. Without each other, we are less-abled.
