Book of the month
Pioneering the Third Age
This book examines current and future issues facing older people and the church. Combining current gerontological thinking, theological insight, and practical application, Rob Merchant offers a starting point from which to map out the territory of this new landscape of older people. Whether young or old, church minister or member, this invaluable resource will surprise, provoke, and spark debate on the mission and composition of the church across generations, as together we pioneer the Third Age.
