A Documentary On Disability, Faith, And Belonging
Set Apart is a formational documentary which explores disability through the lens of the Christian faith. Interweaving the story of Jay, an autistic gentleman in Kentucky, with theological interviews from Dr. John Swinton, Dr. Armand Léon van Ommen, Dr. Brian Brock, and Dr. Grant Macaskill, this film provides an introductory vision for how congregations can faithfully welcome, honor, and share life with people with disabilities within their individual and collective lives.
Our hope is that this story invites deeper reflection and constructive dialogue in churches eager to take faithful steps toward mutual flourishing with people with disabilities.
About Us
Our current cultural landscape leaves little room for human limitation. We overemphasize independence, speed, productivity, rationality, and youthful strength, often at the expense of vulnerability and interdependence.
This narrow anthropology affects everyone, but its consequences fall most heavily on people with disabilities. However, the Christian story offers a different understanding of our shared humanity marked by mutual belonging.
