This is the one ministry I know of, where the struggle will teach us to more deeply identify with those we serve.
Special Needs Ministry and Gauging Success
Temple Grandin, Autism, and a Christian Perspective
In the Christian life, we are amiss if we are pointing others to the best version of themselves rather than pointing them to God as the Master Planner for their lives because truly, God has a plan for everyone He has created!
Praying for Special Needs Families
Pray for Special Needs Families in your church and/or community who do not know Jesus or do not regularly attend a local church.
Third Step: Planning for Special Needs Ministry
To have a good plan, plan alone. To have a great plan, enlist the help of others who share your love and vision for the ministry.
Autism: Matthew 14 and Storms
He had no fear; He was the storm-maker. Jesus said, “Take courage. It is I. Don’t be afraid.” (Matthew 14:27 NIV)
Autism: Seeing Dimly
Have you ever been deceived by your circumstances? Ever looked around and interpreted what was going on in your life by the information you could see dimly? How many times have you been in darkness groping for pieces and clues to put together so you would not feel alone?
Autism and a Gracious Response
It was a Sunday evening I will never forget. When the service ended I thought to myself with relief, maybe this was the best night he has ever had. There was so much I did not know.
Hebrews 10: A Special Needs Call to Worship
We must not allow ourselves to be in a habit of missing the gathering of believers together but must encourage one another as we see the Day drawing near. In other words, we need to do better on both sides of this matter.
An Overlooked Detail
This day, I was distracted by circumstances and hyper-focused on others without giving much thought to myself. This happens as an Autism Mom quite frequently.
