"Biblically inspired wisdom on the challenges and opportunities of growing older"
Vocational discernment, says R. Paul Stevens, is a lifelong process and it takes on even more significance in later life. In "Aging Matters" Stevens argues that our calling does not end with formal retirement; to the contrary, he maintains that we should keep on working, if possible, till life's end.
Stevens delves into matters of calling, spirituality, and legacy in retirement, showing that we must continue to discern our vocation as we grow older to provide meaningful engagement for the rest of our lives. He reframes "retirement" as a time of continued calling and productivity and points to biblical wisdom about turning aging into an extraordinarily fruitful season of life.
Aging Matters offers informed perspective, guidance, hope and a powerful Christian vision for personal and spiritual growth to older people."
