In God’s Image

Theology

“Comensoli’s In God’s Image is a major intervention in contemporary Christian theological discourse on the nature, dignity, and destiny of the human being. Through disciplined and charitable engagement with the most influential theological work from the past thirty years on these themes of intellectual disability, mental illness, and profound cognitive impairment, Comensoli shows why contemporary Catholic theologians must take seriously the challenges raised under the heading ‘disability.’ Pastorally sensitive and passionately argued, Comensoli maps a way forward for Christian theologians working on the topic of disability. In God’s Image should be required reading in any theology course focused on the topic of disability and would be an excellent addition to courses on Christian theological anthropology.”
