Can God know this? The answer to these questions matters to the estimated one billion people with a disability worldwide. Jesus the Disabled God offers an affirmative answer. Jesus' ministry was itself a positive affirmation of those who experience disability, but Jesus went beyond ministry to people with disabilities and actually experienced disability himself on the cross. The amazing thing about this experience is that it was freely chosen, even planned from all eternity. As a consequence, the God-man Jesus now knows what it is like to have a disability. Furthermore, because of his glorious resurrection from the dead, Jesus is no longer disabled and can offer hope to those who are. Jenny Cox uses her experience as a mother of two children with disabilities to reflect on the idea of a 'disabled God.' While some may find the concept of God being disabled a radical idea, Cox seeks to make the concept understandable for those within an evangelical tradition. While rejecting the idea that God is disabled in his eternal being, she finds God in Christ has experienced human disability, and that this is decisive for those seeking to come to terms with human disability. --Mark Worthing, Pastor, Immanuel Lutheran Church As Cox notes, this provides us with an understanding on God's perspective and, therefore, how Christian's perceive disability and people who live with disability. I hope that helps to bring about a more inclusive church here in Australia and all around the world. This is the vision that CBM holds and it is exciting to have this book by Jennifer Cox as a significant contribution to that vision. --Rob Nicholls, Church Engagement Manager, CBM Australia Jennifer Cox is married with four adult children, two of whom have a disability. She has written several articles about disability and regularly writes a blog. She is the author of Autism, Humanity and Personhood (2017) and Intersex in Christ (2018). Dr. Cox teaches theology at Tabor College of Higher Education in Perth, Western Australia.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":50993356341521,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":50993358438673,"sku":"NIN9781532634543","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52536163434769,"sku":"NLS9781532634543","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1532634544.jpg?v=1751406784"},{"product_id":"intersex-in-christ-book-jennifer-cox-9781498244022","title":"Intersex in Christ","description":"Intersex is an umbrella term for many different conditions that cause ambiguous sexual biology. Intersex people are in between, neither clearly male nor clearly female. Intersex has been largely hidden through surgery and secrecy, but is now coming out into the open. Many intersex people have experienced physical, psychological, and relational pain because of the shame attached to their bodily difference. The existence of people with unusual sexual biology presents a challenge to the Christian ideal of humanity as male and female. How can evangelical Christians rightly respond to this phenomenon? Intersex in Christ provides a balance of grace and truth, upholding male and female as God's created intent, while insisting that there is a positive place in the kingdom of God and the world for people with unusual sexual biology. Intersex people are created in the image of God, because of the love of God. Jesus accepts, loves, and dignifies intersex people. The gospel of Jesus Christ is good news for all people, however sexed. An evangelical response to intersex will therefore be one of acceptance, love, justice, and inclusion. Intersex in Christ will help both intersex Christians and the church to understand intersex through the lens of Christ.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51030725132561,"sku":"NIN9781498244022","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52536266424593,"sku":"NLS9781498244022","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1498244025.jpg?v=1751273783"},{"product_id":"intersex-in-christ-book-jennifer-cox-9781532618451","title":"Intersex in Christ","description":"Intersex is an umbrella term for many different conditions that cause ambiguous sexual biology.

It provides a new perspective on spiritual gifts, seeing the person and work of Christ as the foundation for the gifts of the Spirit. The coming of Jesus into the world opens the way for the whole people of God to be indwelt by the Holy Spirit and to share in God's work in the world. The book takes a broad New Testament approach to exploring the gifts, carefully examining the meaning of the gifts by considering the Gospels, Acts, and the epistles. The focus is on seeing each gift as an extension of what Jesus did in his ministry. The gifts of the Spirit equip the church to carry on Jesus' work. Every gift is a means of proclaiming the gospel. God gives his gifts with two purposes in mind: to build the church by bringing people to Christ, and to build up the church by maturing each believer. Consequently, Pentecostals, Charismatics, and conservative Christians alike must embrace spiritual gifts because God desires to transform the world through his equipped people. I always find Jennifer's work thought-provoking. This book is a great exploration of the topic of spiritual gifts; something that I'll no doubt return to again and again. --Heidi Griffin, Small Business Owner Jennifer Anne Cox has been interested in spiritual gifts for over thirty-five years.
