A Vision for the Aging Christian

Christian Living

“My friends and mentors, James Houston and Michael Parker, continue to write collaboratively and share their wisdom and passion to advocate and offer resources for elders, care partners, faith organizations, and the community at large to create a culture in which elders may go on living well. They comprehensively address issues associated with aging, offering well-researched insights and rich, illustrative stories to further a culture of compassion, dignity, and fruitfulness in elderhood. You will want to come back to this book again and again to inform and inspire.”

A Vision for the Aging Church

Church Leadership & Ministry

“I am distinctly honored to call James Houston and Michael Parker friends and colleagues in mission. In A Vision for the Aging Church, these two cultural 'evangelists' advocate for a paradigm shift in both church and society--one in which our elders are proudly embraced and engrafted into vibrant leadership and ministry. As a dementia neurologist, I know that most of our elders will eventually require caregivers. And caregivers need many more resources than are currently available for them. In following the call sounded forth in this fine book we should be assured that we have honored our elders, validated their unique place in church and society, and been true to the highest of all callings. Read this book and be inspired!”

My Two Elaines

Counseling, Grief & Mental Health

“To be complete, stories about Alzheimer’s disease and caregiving must touch on both defeats and triumphs. In My Two Elaines, Governor Schreiber stirs the hearts of readers both with great suffering and great love inherent to the caregiving journey, lightening the load with humor. He introduces us not only to the woman he married and the person she became after Alzheimer’s but also to the extraordinary individual who loves them both: her Marty.”

Resisting Tyranny

“Penning a letter to the present generation in what they imagine to be the words of their Irish ancestor, who rose to the level of statesman from the ranks of servanthood, the Morgans’ write, ‘Protect and defend your republic, whether from within or without. . . . The worse threats come from those who subvert the values we uphold.’ I would highly recommend this book to any who seek to preserve the lessons of history, both for the betterment of themselves and the current generation, and those whose responsibility it will be to ensure the lives and liberties of all.”
