Learning from the Bible
There are many times in the Gospels that we see Jesus encountering people with disabilities and health conditions. Often, our skim reading of those encounters can go like this… Jesus meets disabled person, Jesus heals disabled person, everyone moves on… But there is so much more that Jesus shows us and teaches us through many of those encounters; important learning for us all, and key questions that those encounters raise.
We’ve chosen just five of those encounters, providing the Bible references so that you can look them up, a ‘key word or phrase’, something that may be ‘surprising’, the ‘key teaching verse’, and the important ‘teaching message’ from the passage. We’ve also provided three questions from each encounter for you to consider.
