This is a dynamic, yet uncertain time in our culture. The "Age Wave" is beginning to crest, and its power will radically change politics, economics, social structures, families, health care systems, and yes, even the church! 
There is great power in age: power in wisdom, power in experience, power in time and financial resources! "It is time to unleash that power within congregations and churches across the country," according to the authors. 
Richard and Leona Bergstrom wrote this practical guidebook to help church leaders understand why and how to develop effective and powerful ministries for and by older adults in their local congregations.

What are you doing the rest of your life? THIRD CALLING is a powerful book about finding purpose, passion and spiritual significance in a new season of life. Young adulthood offers opportunities to grow-up, pursue education, perhaps marry, start a family, and get established—the First Calling. Before long, it’s time to develop careers, establish reputations, raise children, and care for elder parents—the Second Calling. Then, something transformational happens; maybe the nest empties, turning a certain age is celebrated or a career ends. It is a new season—the Third Calling. It is a fresh period filled with possibilities and opportunities. And while God has had a plan all along, He has great things in store for the future. He uniquely designed each individual, packed lives with exceptional experiences and placed within every heart a passion for his world and his mission.Richard and Leona Bergstrom share thoughtful insights drawn from their own experiences, as well as from the lives of others. The book will inspire and encourage you and the practical steps presented will guide you through a process to re-ignite dreams and unleash new possibilities.

Developed by leaders in the field of re-imagining retirement, Richard and Leona Bergstrom ask just the right things to guide you into a new season of life. The journal's illustrations are drawn by their 12-year old grandson, Noah-and they will make you smile. This is a perfect gift for anyone thinking about retiring, is early on in retirement, or is interested in what this new chapter of life affords.
