Lessons of Interdependence
Tuesday, January 27 2009
by Amber Nimocks and Frank Stasio
When the disabled and those without disabilities live together, everyone begins to see each other in a new light. This is the guiding principal of the L’Arch communities, where people of varying abilities live side-by-side, interdependently. Stanley Hauerwas, professor of theological ethics at Duke University, explores the lessons that the L’Arch communities offer for the church and for the political process in a new book. It is titled "Living Gently in a Violent World: The Prophetic Witness of Weakness," and Hauerwas is the co-author. He joins Frank Stasio in the studio today.
