LET THE DIGITAL DOORS OPEN!

As society migrates to the digital space, accelerated by the COVID-19 pandemic, churches have no option but to follow suit. In the post-COVID-19, many churches continue to embrace hybrid and blended in-person digital services.  Nonetheless, research has long proven that persons with disability face significant exclusion from the life and ministry of the church. Studies of the digital church reveal this exclusion is replicated in the digital space, rendering the digital church equally inaccessible. Let the Digital Doors Open! Disability and Digital Ecclesiology is a collection of insightful accounts of diverse and relevant voices including persons with disability and caregivers, disability experts, and pastors. Drawing on their observations, expertise, and experiences, they offer insightful practical recommendations to foster accessible digital ecclesiology. The book serves as a clarion call to pastors and church leaders to prioritize conversations on digital accessibility to ensure that  persons with disability are fully included and able to participate in the life and ministry of the digital church.
