One is called Diamonds. The other is Broken and Mended. Both exist to serve people whose bodies don&rsquo;t cooperate on schedule. Both have built their offerings around the assumption that bodies cooperate on schedule.</p> <p>I want to be clear: I believe the people behind these ministries mean well. I believe they genuinely want to help. But meaning well and doing well are not the same thing, and the gap between them is measured in the people who can&rsquo;t participate.</p>
