Episode 15 - Manny Koks - A Theology of Hope and Disability pt. 1
Monday Sep 28, 2020
Monday Sep 28, 2020
Manny Koks is a husband, father, lecturer, theologian, and all round top human being. He is currently completing a PhD, looking at the theology of hope and disability. Manny's interest in this stems from his theological study, combined with his lived experience as someone with cerebral palsy.
This kōrero was so rich that I've split it into two parts with the second half being released as the next episode in a fortnight.
In pt. 1 we talk about what led Manny to this combination of theology, hope and disability; about the use of language and what it says about underlying assumptions regarding disability; and we even tackle church healing culture as he has experienced it in his life - does God heal? Why isn't he healing? What does church healing culture say to people like Manny?
