This is a powerful book. Situated by his experience as a parent of a child with disabilities and drawing from a wide-ranging engagement with Christian traditions, Brock’s analysis offers rich theological and ethical insights that cultivate fertile new ground for reimagining disability outside modern frames of normalcy. The book is sure to become a standard reference in the field. But more, it should be read by all those studying Christian theology and ethics, and learning to live and wonder as members of one another in the Body of Christ.

Brian Brock shows us how 'wonder' better describes the disabled than 'the disabled.' More precisely, he shows us how shared life with the disabled naturally enjoins us to wonder. Despite our contemporary culture's inability to receive the world as gift, God won't give up on us. The fact that Brock makes this argument by marshaling theological resources in order to tell the beautiful story of his son Adam tells everything you need to know about the courage, insight and power of Wondrously Wounded.
