Does retirement mean sitting in a rocker and waiting for death? Or desperately using cosmetics, plastic surgery, and youthful clothing styles in an effort to stay young?

Katie Funk Wiebe says a resounding no to both attitudes. In this book, destined to become a classic, she talks about the inner journey of aging. Wiebe speaks honestly, faithfully, and movingly about the transition to retirement and how it compares with life's earlier "border crossings."

Anyone struggling through the pain and promise of a new stage in life will find a kindred spirit.

Now this second edition provides a new foreword and preface, revised original chapters, and two new and poignant ones telling of Wiebe's journey through the death of her daughter and of recent reflections on and experiences of being "old."

Revised 2003.

Aging
Society today is increasingly segregated by age. Rarely do three or four generations live in the same town, much less the same house. Nursing homes, retirement communities, work, school, and day care keep the ages separate and in their own worlds.

Unfortunately, the church is following these same societal trends toward greater age segregation. The church is the loser when the generations do not mix. With her usual bite and fiery way of telling it like it is, Katie Funk Wiebe helps all ages to rethink the way we define each other and to change attitudes in order to bring all generations closer together. In so doing, Wiebe positions us to become the spiritual family of God.
