Disability Theology: My Body is Not A Prayer Request, by Amy Kenny
N. T. Wright quote from Surprised By Hope: “Once we get the resurrection straight, we can and must get mission straight. […] People who believe in the resurrection, in God making a whole new world in which everything will be set right at last, are unstoppably motivated to work for that new world in the present” (Surprised by Hope 193, 214). […] And if we believe it and pray, as he taught us, for God’s kingdom to come on earth as it is in heaven, there is no way we can rest with major injustice in the world. […] The final putting to rights of everything does indeed wait for the last day. We must therefore avoid the arrogance or triumphalism of… imagining that we can build the kingdom by our own efforts without the need for a further divine act of new creation. But we must agree… that doing justice in the world is part of the Christian task” (Surprised by Hope 213, 215, 216). Indeed, the prophet Micah reminds us: “He has shown you, O mortal, what is good. And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God” (Micah 6:8, NIV).
