More about the book
Focusing on the intersection of Deaf culture and theology, the book critiques the Church's oppressive views towards Deaf individuals, often seen as unable to hear. It reclaims Deaf perspectives in Church history and explores how visual communication can engage with biblical texts. The author provocatively questions the inclusivity of religious practices, asking whether Jesus can communicate through sign language, thus highlighting the need for a more accessible and understanding approach within the Church.
