Flowing from Jesus's parable of the banquest feast, this practical and challenging call to a more inclusive church shows why disabled people--the mentally retarded, the physically impaired, and others--must be part of congregational life, along with how, where, and what to do. Essential for parents, teachers, and the disabled themselves.

Brett Webb-Mitchell is interested in the place and presence of all people at God's banquet feast, including people with disabilities. An ordained clergyperson in the Presbyterian Church (USA), he has served the church as a pastor, a chaplain, and a seminary professor at Duke Divinity School. Currently he is the director of the School of the Pilgrim (www.schoolofthepilgrim.com), a teaching ministry that takes people on actual pilgrimages around the world to enable them to discover the pilgrimage they are on at home. He is the author of various books advocating the full inclusion in the church of people with disabilities. These include God Plays Piano Too, Dancing with Disabilities, and the soon-to-be-published Beyond the Ramp.
