What if autism isn't a barrier to experiencing God's presence—but a uniquely beautiful lens for beholding God's glory?

In this rich and heartfelt conversation, Josh is joined by Harrison Litzell, a late-discovered autistic ordained minister, to explore the question: How do autistic people reflect the glory and character of God—not despite their autistic traits, but in them? Together, they delve into story, theology, and lived experience to illuminate how autistic ways of thinking, feeling, and relating can uniquely reveal divine attributes.

We press into the sacredness of autistic embodiment, perception, and relationality, considering the glory of God not as something abstract or far-off, but as something revealed in the particularities of neurodivergent lives.

This episode challenges deficit-based narratives and invites listeners to see autism not as an obstacle to spiritual life, but as a sacred and beautiful expression of it. Whether you're autistic yourself, walking alongside someone who is, or simply longing for a more expansive theology of humanity, you're welcome here.
