Wrinkled but Not Ruined, Counsel for the Elderly

About this book

The righteous . . . will still yield fruit in old age; They shall be full of sap and very green (Psalm 92:14).


An older person may be like a fruit-bearing tree that still produces fruit in old age! He needn't waste the last years of his life watching TV. He may still have a productive place in God's kingdom-if only he will.


Most books that seek to help elderly persons major in sociological or psychological studies. Here is something different! In Wrinkled but Not Ruined, Adams sets forth biblical commands and principles that will help pastors, families, and churches minister to elderly believers in a Godly manner. Adams applies scripture to the problems and opportunities of old age in ways that can make the latter years fruitful and rewarding.


Don't miss this book if you minister to an older person, or are approaching old age and want to deal with these issues before they become problems.
