Description

For forty years, James K. Wagner was a United Methodist minister. Now that he is retired and living in community with other older people, he has found that no one ages out of asking questions about their Christian faith.

Oh, to Be 108 Again: Aging Gracefully by Living Fully in the 4th Quarter of Life answers questions such as: Why is forgiveness so hard to do? Why is the Bible so difficult to understand? What evidence do we have of an afterlife? Is there any help in coping with grief?

Wagner's Spiritual and Ethical Wellness Checklist personalizes the book for each reader, and each chapter concludes with four questions for personal reflection and small group discussion.

There are no wrinkles on one's soul. Spiritual growth has no limitations. And with a heart that cares for others, with eyes that see beyond everyday happenings, and with a spirit in tune with the spirit of God, we will find that good things can and do happen in our later years.
