Indispensable Church

A church planting model that treats everyone as indispensable

IndispensABLE is a nontraditional, disability-inclusive and sensory-friendly church gathering plan and format that keeps the essentials of what makes "church."

What is an IndispensABLE Church?

IndispensABLE Church is a church planting model to take Jesus to every community near and far. This is unique and like no other model, just as disability ministry is like no other ministry.

Monthly services held at host churches are designed to be sensory friendly. Even though they're nontraditional in format, the plan includes all traditional elements of a church service: Message, music, breaking of bread, and offering. This is not just a monthly worship gathering. Over time, additional demographic-targeted gatherings such as men’s groups, women’s groups, and family nights will be added.

IndispensABLE Church is designed to be integrated into the fabric of the church’s DNA and weekly ministries.
As it is, there are many parts, but one body. The eye cannot say to the hand, “I don’t need you!” And the head cannot say to the feet, “I don’t need you!” On the contrary, those parts of the body that seem to be weaker are indispensable . . .
1 Corinthians 12:20-22

Because Jesus' table is accessible for everyone...

We desire to see the Church make room for all people affected by disability. To fully participate. To fully partner. To fully lead.

We exist to equip and empower the 25% of the population with a disability, their families, and their churches to become who God has created them to be.
