In this episode, we’re continuing on in the disability and the church seminar series—the third of four sessions. If you haven’t caught the first two sessions, be sure to check them out before you get into this one.In this seminar, my friend Greg Harris presents on disability and discipleship.Session One - Disability Language and Rhetoric with Krista Ewert: https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/disability-and-the-church-seminar-part-one-before/id1779392257?i=1000720849933Session Two - What is a Human? with Michael Morelli: https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/disability-and-the-church-part-two-what-is-a/id1779392257?i=1000721876026Not only is Greg a pastor, he’s also working on a doctorate that focuses on this topic.He’s exploring the question: what if the church was a place where everybody was truly considered capable of being a disciple and discipling other people? What would that community look like? What would it to do to make it that kind of community?As Greg poses these questions, he provides a number of opportunities for us to reflect one where we—where you are at—and ask: how is my church, my community doing in this area? Could we be doing better? And if so, what does better look like in this context?These seminars were the result of a collaborative effort between The Lazarus Centre, Northwest College and Seminary, and Fellowship Pacific.BioGreg Harris has served in pastoral ministry since 2010, and has been on the pastoral team at SouthRidge Fellowship since Fall 2022. He believes the church should be a place of mutuality, and he desires to see each disciple of Jesus—regardless of their dis/abilities—mature in Christlikeness.Greg received a Dip. in Biblical Studies and a B.A. in Worship Arts from Columbia Bible College; an MDiv from Northwest Baptist Seminary, and is a Doctoral candidate in Practical Theology at McMaster Divinity College (with a research focus on the intersection of dis/ability and discipleship in the local church).
