Senior Adult Ministry
A Biblical View of Aging
Aging is a normal part of life
"There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under heaven: a time to be born and a time to die" (Ecclesiastes 3:1-2a).
Senior adults deserve respect
"'Honor your father and mother - which is the first commandment with a promise -that it may go well with you and that you may enjoy long life on the earth'" (Ephesians 6:2-3).
Aging brings experience
"Is not wisdom found among the aged? Does not long life bring understanding?" (Job 12:12).
Senior adults should be mentors
"Remember the days of old; consider the generations long past. Ask your father and he will tell you, your elders, and they will explain to you" (Deuteronomy 32:7).
God uses everyone
"In the last days, God says, I will pour out my Spirit on all people. Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your young men will see visions, your old men will dream dreams" (Acts 2:17).
