S9 Ep991: Disability, the Church, and the Gospel: Eric Targe

Eric Targe gives leadership and oversight to the College (Crossroads) and Disability (139) Ministries at Moody Church in Chicago. He is also an adjunct faculty member of Moody Bible Institute. Originally from New York, Eric has lived in Chicago since 2009. He was born into a Puerto Rican-Jewish family and came to faith during his teen years. Eric is passionate about seeing people come to faith in Christ and grow in the use of their spiritual gifts. Eric has a BA in Theology from Moody Bible Institute and an MDiv from Trinity Evangelical Divinity School.  In this episode, Eric and I talk about disability, focusing largely on the Deaf, Deaf culture, a theology of healing, the proper language to use, and how churches can better embody Jesus toward the largest minority population on earth.
