Lessons from the Light & Power Company Kathi Mcnair

Jeff and Kathi McNair started the Light & Power Company on Valentines Day in 1990. It is a class that meets on Sunday mornings which includes adults with various disabilities. In the many years that they have worked to facilitate the faith development of adults, they learned a great deal. They have also developed a very specific approach. In particular, class members are integrated into the life of the church and they are interacted with as adults. Those who attend are not simply our students, they are our peers. Over the years, Jeff has been the teacher of the class. Although he has collected his lessons, it is only recently that he has published them. The first volume of this series on the Book of Psalms came out in 2017 and the second on Romans in 2018. Those lessons and the Hebrews curriculum you are holding, would be challenging for any adult. In fact, many adults without disabilities attend our class. Further lesson compilations are forthcoming. We invite you to try out this curriculum and let us know how it has worked for you!Jeff McNair is a professor of special education and disability studies. Kathi McNair is a career special educator. Together they have worked in disability ministry at local churches since 1977.
