Why Get This Book

For the older reader who feels set aside, or the adult child watching a parent age. People are living longer than ever, and with longer life can come pain, and sometimes emotional and spiritual loneliness that hurts worse than the body. Jane Marie Thibault asks whether the Good News has good news for older adults, and answers with ten Gospel promises. It's tender and honest about aging. Honest note: it's written for later life, so younger readers may want something else, though it can help caregivers. Next step: read Isaiah 46:4 and share it with someone older you love.
