10 Gospel Promises for Later Life by Jane Marie Thibault Pdf

Is there any good news in the "Good News" for older adults? We're living longer. In fact, people 85 and older are the fastest-growing segment of the U.S. population. Life expectancy is increasing in all developed countries in the world. With the gift of longer life, though, comes pain. The worst physical ailments and frailties may seem inconsequential when compared to the feelings of emotional and spiritual abandonment that many elders report today: "I can't relate to Jesus' message any longer. The gospel calls for action. I can't do what Christ wants me to do, and I feel guilty." "The Old Testament comforts me more than the New Testament. These writings relate to my situation more since I'm old, flat on my back, and utterly dependent on others." "The church has no place for old people." "I feel that I have outgrown Jesus —he's for beginners in the spiritual life." Out of Thibault's reflection on the relevance of the gospel to later life comes hope. "While secular society offers long-term care insurance, Jesus offers the promise of abundant life in the here and now as well in heaven," Thibault says. Each chapter of 10 Gospel Promises for Later Life addresses a fear about aging and faith and gives an example of its negative effect on a person's daily life. Next you'll find a response, the promise of the gospel, the assurance of God's constant love that offers hope in all circumstances. Identify your own fears (or the fears of a loved one) about aging, and learn from Thibault's sensitive study how to make the most of God's gift of longer life. Questions for personal reflection or group discussion are included at the end of each chapter, making it an ideal book for individuals or classes.

Take My Hand Again by Brummett, Nancy Parker Pdf

The guide the author wishes she had when she took on a caretaker role.
By 2020, the senior population in this country will number over 115 million. Despite this persistent “graying” of America, few adult children feel prepared to take on the role of caregiver for aging parents. Those who discover they must now intervene and care for an elder they love are often at a loss. Trying to navigate the transition is like being dropped in a foreign country with no map, no GPS, and no translator—and acting as tour guide.
Nancy Parker Brummett knows what they’re going through and has the means to help. She shares her own experience of caring for a mother and mother-in-law in assisted living, as well as lessons learned through study of the academic, social, and political issues involved. Each chapter begins with relevant Scripture, but the useful information here is not limited to people of faith.
Take My Hand Again offers readers the warm feeling of having someone they trust stepping up to hold their hand and share encouragement and hope. Children of the aging don’t need a degree in gerontology; they just need for someone to ask the pertinent questions and give them an overview of the pros and cons of common options so they can make informed decisions. Whether they’ve already had their wake-up call or just want to be prepared for what’s to come, Brummett’s sometimes humorous, sometimes poignant book has just what they’re looking for.

The Lord Strengthens Our Faith, Our Hearing, Our Prayers, & Our Decisions by Allen J. Bachoroski Pdf

The Lord Strengthens Our Faith, Our Hearing, Our Prayers, & Our Decisions By: Allen Bachoroski This author’s journey towards faith is candidly shared, starting with his unbelief and traveling through scripture in search of answers to business decisions, overcoming addictions, hearing God’s voice and being healed from cancer. Mr. Bachoroski’s scripturally based book is filled with personal and Biblical examples. The reader will find their faith growing as they explore areas of unbelief and learn how The Lord Strengthens Our Faith, Our Hearing, Our Prayers and Our Decisions. The first section about faith makes for an interesting read when Hebrew names are used to describe Bachoroski’s personal experiences with faith. The next section is about hearing from God by exploring 21 different ways to hear Him. Then he documents promises from Jesus that can be used in prayer. Bachoroski reviews events in the life of Jesus in which the promises are taught. Finally, a section that uses Bachoroski’s 35 years in school administration, sharing scripture that helped in his decisions-making. One hard decision was believing in healing so he shares 19 passages that lead to healing. The four areas where The Lord Strengthens are faith, hearing, prayers, and decisions. The appendix reviews 150 scriptural passages that are described in the book to help with personal research and group discussions.
