One of the hallmarks of contemporary culture is its attitude toward aging and the elderly. Youth and productivity are celebrated in today's society, while the elderly are increasingly marginalized. This not only poses difficulties for old people but is also a loss for the young and middleagers, who could learn much from the elderly, including what it means to grow old (and die) 'in Christ.'Growing Old in Christ presents the first serious theological reflection ever on what it means to grow old, particularly in our culture and particularly as a Christian. In a fullorbed discussion of the subject, eighteen firstrate Christian thinkers survey biblical and historical perspectives on aging, look at aging in the modern world, and describe the 'Christian practice of growing old.' Along the way they address many timely issues, including the medicalization of aging, the debate over physicianassisted suicide, and the importance of friendships both among the elderly and between the elderly and the young.Weighty enough to instruct theologians, ethicists, and professional caregivers yet accessible enough for pastors and general readers, this book will benefit anyone seeking faithbased insight into growing old.Contributors:David AersDavid CloutierRowan A.
