Water Prairie Chronicle Podcast 
March 13, 2026

Disability ministry isn’t just a program—it’s the next big movement in the church.

In this powerful conclusion to my interview with John Fela, author of Faith Like My Father, we dive deep into the intersection of faith, disability, and community. John shares his personal journey of coming to faith through the challenges of raising his son, Chris, who is non-verbal and autistic. We discuss the profound moment Chris surprised everyone with a response during prayer and the vital need for true inclusion in our churches. Whether you are a parent seeking hope or a church leader looking to welcome all families, this episode offers a roadmap for moving from “Don’t Panic” to finding a steadfast anchor in faith.
