Start With Hello: Conversations About Disability

Meet Our Newest Team Member, Bart Jones

Bart Jones officially joined the Ability Ministry staff in September of this year, which means it is WAY beyond time for an official introduction. We discuss how he first became involved with Ability Ministry, his time as a pastor, what it means to be the Executive Minister of Spiritual Development and Operations, and the legacy he wants to leave.

Keeping & Fostering Great Volunteers

Ryan and Jason talk beyond just finding volunteers, but ways to engage with your team, keep them healthy, and methods to avoid burnout in ministry.

Ministry with Adults

Ministry with adults seems such a basic concept you might be wondering why the need for an entire episode about it. Ryan and Jason talk through why an adult disability ministry is critical as well as resources and supports to continue these ministries and help them grow.

Miracle 139 International

We thoroughly enjoyed this conversation with Linda, founder of Miracle 139 International. Her organization helps churches and schools create inclusive environments for children with disabilities, providing training and resources to empower leaders in embracing inclusion. We go in depth about the work that they are doing as well as talking about disability inclusion in general.

A Beginner's Guide to Disability and the Bible

We talk through the details about one of our favorite resources, which is a comprehensive resource to take you from cover to cover of the bible, highlighting what it says about disability. Listen to the end to find out why Jason's movie preferences are far superior to Ryan's.
