During March, Becky Holst lead a powerful bible study, called Growing Older & Wise. It was based on the book with the same name, written by Dale and Sandy Larsen. In this book, it takes passages from scripture that you are probably familiar with, and examines them through the lens of getting older. Wait, I’m not old, will I benefit from reading this book or doing this study? Absolutely. People of all ages will benefit from taking the time to consider how you are aging, how you want to age, and to find the grace for others who are aging well, or maybe not so well. Don’t believe me? Check it out for yourself. The study questions will help you gain a better understanding of what aging gracefully can look like from a Biblical perspective.
Here is a snippet of the book excerpt. “You can’t change the fact that you are getting older. And, indeed, you may not want to! Age brings many gifts and opportunities for continued growth. In nine-session LifeGuide® Bible Study, Dale and Sandy Larsen help you discover the Bible’s perspective on aging. You’ll discover how God can effectively and powerfully use those who have grown wiser with the passing years.“
