Send us a text

In this episode, we sit down with Laura C. Robb and Corey Parish to explore the heart of their contributions to the Canadian Journal of Theology, Mental Health, and Disability.

Laura shares her reflections on holistic care – what it means to treat health and theology as deeply interconnected – and invites us into the layered questions she holds when navigating systems of care as a disabled theologian. She also explores what it might mean to understand the Trinity through the lens of holistic theology.

Corey offers a tender account of receiving an autism diagnosis later in life and how that journey shaped his sense of home and belonging. He speaks to the power of unexpected places, and how his doctoral work seeks to hold space for autistic theologies that emerge from lived experience.

Together, their voices invite us into a theology that is grounded, embodied, and spacious.
