Have you noticed how Pastors all seem to look the same. Middle-aged, fit, dynamic, full of vision, these men seem like they have all come from the same production line. Pretty much like the same model of car roles off the production line.
I think GOD is more than that. He takes those who different, those who are broken and uses them. Maybe it is not how we look that matters, but what is in our hearts. Should we be open to many different kinds of leaders, I say "yes", even if that leader is blind or in a wheel chair.
yes, God can use anyone.

I had never thought about why we don't have preachers in wheelchairs.

Terry,
Could it be that they appear broken as people. We don't like to see brokeness we like to see strength.

One thing I love about our church is the deafblind service we host each year. I remember being hugely impressed by the faithfulness of a deafblind man called Cyril Axelrod who came to preach to us.
