Tahni Cullen, Josiah's Fire #9

In this podcast, Tahni Cullen shares her personal journey raising her non-speaking autistic son Josiah, discussing how this experience transformed her understanding of faith, inclusion, and human worth beyond societal achievement metrics. The group explores how churches and communities often exclude families with special needs, contrasting this with Jesus's model of welcoming the marginalized and recognizing the spiritual gifts of those typically overlooked. They conclude by offering practical recommendations for creating more inclusive religious spaces that honor everyone's inherent dignity and potential contribution, emphasizing that true worship and community come through vulnerability rather than performance.
