The Challenges of Aging
Retrieving Spiritual Traditions in the Long-Term Care of the Elderly

An innovative educational program designed for those who minister to the elderly and anyone interested in the aging process. Challenging contemporary cultural notions about aging, this program retrieves the wisdom of the religious traditions and encourages the elderly to explore aging as a spiritual journey. The basic program includes: one handbook on aging and the Christian, Jewish, Islamic, Buddhist, and Hindu religious traditions, one 48-page Leader's Guide, ten participant workbooks, and two 20-minute videos. Supplemental handbooks, workbooks, videos and Leader's Guides are also available.
