Description:
A practical and inspiring guide to providing effective ministry to African American -- and all -- the elders.
Expand description
Drawing on the African American cultural and religious heritage of the church as "soul community", this insightful resource offers African American church leaders pragmatic methods for meeting the unique needs of the elderly, the fastest growing segment of their population and those most likely to fall through the shrinking "safety net" of social services. Chapters explore the biblical and historical roots of reverence for elders; identify concrete ways for churches to provide spiritual, socio-emotional, and instrumental support; and affirm the possibilities for churches that honor elders as both givers and receivers.
