“As a college professor who daily watches the challenges of life and the ideologies of the age batter my students’ confidence in their Christian faith, I am eager to put this book into their hands.” —SANDRA RICHTER, Westmont College “A must-read for anyone who has realized that not everything we grew up believing about Christianity is true.

ON THE SPECTRUM Autism, Faith, and the Gifts of Neurodiversity Daniel Bowman Jr.

On the Spectrum debunks myths about autism with a realistic yet hope-filled deep dive into the heart, mind, and life of an autistic Christian.

“ On the Spectrum rings with poetry, compassion, and wisdom, and it reveals so much about autistic experience. I felt nourished by the truths that Bowman tells and relieved to see them shared.” —KATHERINE MAY, author of Wintering: The Power of Rest and Retreat in Difficult Times “I can only imagine how many people will read Bowman’s moving memoir and feel like someone finally sees them. But for neurotypi- cal readers like me, Bowman invites us to see our neighbors afresh. This book itself is one of the gifts of neurodivergence.” —JAMES K. A.

(MFA, Seattle Pacific University) is an author, poet, and associate professor of English at Taylor University, where he codirects the Making Literature Confer- ence.
