Same Lake, Different Boat: Coming Alongside People Touched by Disability, Revised and Updated
In a fallen world, we all experience brokenness and limited ability. We're in the same lake, sharing a common story—but because our experiences differ from person to person, we're not in the same boat.
When it comes to people with disability, however, we often act like we're in different lakes. Disability seems frightening, abnormal, or irrelevant to those who do not experience it. But Stephanie Hubach argues that there is a better way to think of disability, a better way to understand the challenges facing those touched by disability, and a better way to understand the role of the church in the lives of people with differing abilities. She pinpoints what is true about disability, in contrast to common secular views, and what we need to rethink and relearn in order to support one another and make God's kingdom truly accessible.
This revised and updated edition includes new chapters on growing in grace and journeying into maturity.

“Whether you are someone navigating the challenges of dealing with disability in your own family or someone who can’t imagine—and perhaps doesn’t want to have to imagine—the difficulties faced by families touched by disability, this book is for you. Steph Hubach comes alongside readers, disarming us with personal stories that range from hilarious to heartbreaking, and then gently challenging us to live graciously and generously as members of a body that includes those with disabilities.”
Nancy Guthrie
author of Hearing Jesus Speak Into Your Sorrow
“The new chapters in Steph Hubach’s updated Same Lake, Different Boat are worth the price of the book. She combines a deep understanding of the world of disabilities and disability thinking with a rich biblical perspective that brings fresh insights to the church’s (and our) struggle to include people with disabilities.”
Paul Miller
Author of A Praying Life
“... I have read more 'how to' books on disability ministry than I care to mention, but Stephanie Hubach's work is different. It goes deep. It speaks to our relationships—with God, with each other, and especially with those we're not typically drawn to (that's the important part).”
