<p>Designed to be used individually or in a small group, Forty-Sixty identifies 10 significant issues many people in their 40s, 50s and 60s face as they experience midlife. Gentzler and Miller help individuals understand the problems of midlife and suggest ways to cope constructively. Each chapter explores a midlife issue and includes a Bible study guide to enable the reader to draw upon God's word and wisdom for direction and meaning. Issues addressed in this study include # Myths and realities # Children, parents, and grandchildren # Pre-retirement and work # Relationships # Aging parents # Losses # Life-long learning # Spirituality # Death and the afterlife # Giving back to the community As you study this guide, may you realize that you are not alone in your journey. Aging affords each of us an opportunity to grow in faith, wisdom, understanding, and the ability to witness to others our faith in Jesus Christ. Many books have been written about how to age successfully, but it is important for each of us to find our own way. Forty-Sixty will help in that journey.</p>
