Blurb:
Can we talk about getting older? With another Baby
Boomer turning 60 every 7.5 seconds, the “age wave” has captured the attention
of such diverse fields as financial planning, cosmetics, medicine,
and—religion. How does aging affect our spirituality? Does it deepen our
relationship with God, or have decades of life’s roller coaster rides left us
“spiritually challenged?” Life after 50
can be particularly challenging for women because of the personal, social, and
physical changes that naturally occur as we age. A rich spiritual life can help
50+ women gain perspective about their aging process and seek God’s guidance as
they encounter the changes, challenges, and opportunities of later life.
Aging
Gracefully with the 23rd Psalm applies some of the best-loved verses in
scripture to a reflective study of ways women can grow in grace as they grow in
years. The book format provides reflections on themes of aging found in each
verse of Psalm 23, such as facing forks in the road; making fresh starts;
resolving past conflicts; coping with social, personal, and physical changes;
navigating through emotional transitions; processing loss and grief; and
end-of-life planning. Illustrations of each theme follow, using biblical
examples, vignettes from the author’s personal aging journey, a Takeaway
Message from each psalm verse, suggestions for group discussion topics, and a
journaling exercise to help the reader write a “Prayer Memo” to the Good Shepherd
of the 23rd Psalm.
