When many contemporary Christians consider the new creation, they imagine the new Jerusalem filled with unblemished people living with idealized resurrected bodies: 'healing' is assumed as a reality of the resurrection. Maja Whitaker develops the proposition that people with disabilities might retain their diverse embodiment in the new creation.
