Description:

The church has much to learn from an often overlooked community--those with disabilities. Theologian Stanley Hauerwas collaborates with Jean Vanier, founder of the worldwide L'Arche communities, to explore how Christians can embody a different way of being--one marked by gentleness, peacemaking and faithfulness.
