GCORR Book Study: My Body Is Not a Prayer Request
This 4-session book study is based on “My Body Is Not a Prayer Request” By Dr. Amy Kenny
My Body Is Not a Prayer Request by Dr. Amy Kenny is a bold, prophetic, and deeply personal call for the Church to reckon with its complicity in ableism.
Disability justice is a framework that moves beyond legal accessibility to systemic equity. Coined by disabled queer activists of color, it centers the lived experiences of disabled people who are also impacted by race, gender, class, and other forms of marginalization.
Disability is not a monolithic experience. Cultural background, race, ethnicity, gender, geography, socioeconomic status, and religious identity all shape how disability is experienced and understood.
Each session is made up of:
Reading Synopsis
Provocative Thought
Opening Prayer
Biblical Connection
Self-Reflection
Discussion Questions
Action Items
Closing Ritual
Closing Prayer
Deeper Dive Resources
