Do we have a theology of disability?

We love theology in the evangelical church. We want to know what God says about all sorts of things in the Bible. We soak in what those who have studied theology say, and sometimes we study it ourselves with the books that we read and the podcasts we listen to.

But do we, as evangelicals, have a theology of disability?

I don’t mean a theology of suffering, as that is something completely different. The majority of disabled people don’t see their disability as ‘suffering’.
