People in the later years of life face many changes-many not of their own choosing. Still Praying After All These Years offers 52 reassuring meditations that help readers realize that their lives still have meaning and that aging holds opportunities for spiritual growth. Each reading begins with a quote or question that Susan Scott received during her ministry with older adults. Topics include loneliness, the losses that accompany aging, how to make a difference, suffering, finding meaning and purpose at the end of life, experiencing wonder, and feeling God's presence or absence.This book makes a lovely gift for older people; it will encourage them and make them feel less alone as they read about others who have walked a similar path. If you are a caregiver or minister to frail elderly people, this book will move you to empathize with the spiritual, emotional, and physical challenges your loved ones face.[Short catalog copy: 62 words]Just because you're old, that doesn't mean God is finished with you.
