In the inaugural episode of Neurodivergent Faith, our host, Josh Davis explores the concept of neurodiversity from a faith-based perspective. Neurodiversity, which encompasses conditions like autism, ADHD, and dyslexia, is framed as a natural part of human variation, reflecting God's diverse and intentional design. The episode emphasizes that neurodivergent individuals, like everyone else, are created in the image of God, and their differences are valuable rather than deficient. Josh also introduces the "social model of disability," which shifts the focus from the individual’s limitations to societal barriers, and highlights how Jesus’ teachings on inclusion and dignity align with neurodiversity.

Connecting With God in Neurodivergent Ways (part 3) 38:16

منذ 4 أيام38:16

38:16

Some of us connect with God best through structured rhythms—predictable routines that provide safety and grounding. Others experience God in the unplanned, in moments of spontaneity and discovery. And for some neurodivergent people (I see you, fellow AuDHDers!), it’s a delicate dance between the two. In this final episode of our three-part series, we explore the tension between structure and flexibility in spiritual practices. Listeners share their personal experiences—what doesn’t work for them and the rhythms they’ve found that do . From the comfort of liturgy to the need for novelty, from the struggle with traditional prayer methods to the freedom of creative expression, we hear how neurodivergent brains engage faith in ways that are both deeply personal and profoundly valid. Join us as we reflect on the ways structure can hold space for divine encounters—and how spontaneity can open unexpected doors to connection. Where do you find yourself in this tension? And how does God meet you there? #NeurodivergentFaith #AutismAndFaith #ADHDFaith #SpiritualityAndNeurodiversity #ConnectingWithGod #FaithAndRoutine #FaithAndSpontaneity #LiturgyAndCreativity #NeurodivergentWorship To connect further, find Josh on Facebook , Instagram or email at: justjosuedavis@gmail.com.

In this episode of Neurodivergent Faith, we consider more of the creative and diverse ways neurodivergent people connect with God. We hear from listeners who share honestly about what works for them and what doesn’t, highlighting the beauty of diversity in faith expressions. Traditional spiritual practices like Bible reading don’t work for everyone—and that’s okay! We explore alternative ways of engaging with Scripture beyond just reading. We also talk about engaging creativity and dialogue with others as meaningful ways to connect with God. Together, we reflect on how Jesus invited his disciples into a dynamic, experiential relationship—walking, learning, and growing alongside him. For those who struggle with conventional spiritual practices, this episode offers encouragement: you would have made a great disciple, not despite how your mind works, but because of it. #NeurodivergentFaith #NeurodivergentSpirituality #NeurodivergentLife #NeurodiversityMatters #MentalHealthAndFaith #FaithAndNeurodiversity #NeurodivergentChristianity #ChristianPodcast #FaithJourney #SpiritualGrowth #PodcastEpisode #FaithPodcast #NeurodivergentVoices #ChristianLife #SpiritualityForEveryone #NDChristianity #FaithAndNeurodiversity #ChristianityBeyondQuietTime #NeurodiverseChurch #InclusiveSpirituality #SacredRhythms To connect further, find Josh on Facebook , Instagram or email at: justjosuedavis@gmail.com.

Jesus + Neurodivergent Accommodations? 31:49

منذ 18 يومًا31:49

31:49

When the crowds pressed in, Jesus didn’t just push through—he found creative ways to create space while staying engaged. In this episode of Neurodivergent Faith , we explore Luke 4:42–5:3 and consider how Jesus’ choice to withdraw and even get into a boat might reflect a form of accommodation. Too often, we’re told we must choose between caring for ourselves or serving the community. But what if that’s a false choice? What if Jesus shows us a way to do both—through creative accommodations that honor both our needs and our calling? Join us as we challenge binary thinking, reimagine what inclusion can look like, and consider how Jesus’ example might affirm the needs of neurodivergent people in faith spaces. #NeurodivergentFaith #NeurodivergentSpirituality #NeurodivergentLife #NeurodiversityMatters #MentalHealthAndFaith #FaithAndNeurodiversity #NeurodivergentChristianity #ChristianPodcast #FaithJourney #SpiritualGrowth #PodcastEpisode #FaithPodcast #NeurodivergentVoices #ChristianLife #SpiritualityForEveryone #NDChristianity #FaithAndNeurodiversity #ChristianityBeyondQuietTime #NeurodiverseChurch #FaithAndInclusion #AccommodationsAreBiblical #DisabilityTheology To connect further, find Josh on Facebook , Instagram or email at: justjosuedavis@gmail.com.

Connecting with God in Neurodivergent Ways (Part 1) 37:24

منذ 25 يومًا37:24

37:24

In this episode of Neurodivergent Faith , listeners reflect on how setting and movement play a crucial role in spiritual connection for neurodivergent individuals. Traditional notions of "quiet time" or "personal devotions" often assume a structured, still, and silent approach to engaging with God, which often does not align with the sensory and attentional needs of neurodivergent people. Drawing from both listener experiences and biblical examples, we explore how finding the right environment—whether a peaceful, sensory-friendly space or the natural world—can support a regulated nervous system and make spiritual engagement more accessible. Examples from Scripture, such as Jesus meeting Zacchaeus in his unique context or seeking solitude in nature, reinforce the idea that connection with God is deeply personal. The episode also highlights the importance of embodied connection, recognizing that many neurodivergent individuals, particularly those with ADHD, may struggle with traditional stillness-based spiritual practices. Movement—such as walking while praying, using fidgets, or listening to Scripture while engaging in another activity—can help sustain focus and create a meaningful spiritual rhythm. Biblical stories, including Peter walking on water, illustrate that encountering God is not a one-size-fits-all experience. Listeners are encouraged to explore what settings and practices support their own connection with God, embracing the unique ways their neurodivergence shapes their faith journey. Stay tuned for more episodes on this topic! ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- #NeurodivergentFaith #NeurodivergentSpirituality #NeurodivergentLife #NeurodiversityMatters #MentalHealthAndFaith #FaithAndNeurodiversity #NeurodivergentChristianity #ChristianPodcast #FaithJourney #SpiritualGrowth #PodcastEpisode #FaithPodcast #NeurodivergentVoices #ChristianLife #SpiritualityForEveryone #NDChristianity #FaithAndNeurodiversity #ChristianityBeyondQuietTime #NeurodiverseChurch #InclusiveSpirituality #SacredRhythms To connect further, find Josh on Facebook , Instagram or email at: justjosuedavis@gmail.com.

Fearfully and Wonderfully Made: How Well Do We Know It? 37:44

منذ 7 weeks37:44

37:44

In this episode of Neurodivergent Faith , we explore the deeply personal question: How well do we truly know and believe that we are fearfully and wonderfully made? Drawing from reflections shared by a diverse group of neurodivergent friends, we dive into the barriers that can make it challenging to see ourselves as reflections of God’s glory, as described in Psalm 139. Their stories illuminate the complexities of reconciling the truth of God’s creation with the realities of living in a world (and/or church!) that often marginalizes neurodivergent people. Join us for an honest and compassionate conversation about the tension between knowing we are made in God’s image and the struggles that make it hard to believe it fully.
