Cultivating friendship – a lost art

March 2, 2020 by Marion Van Driel Leave a Comment

Cultivating friendship - a lost art

We are fashioned to thrive within meaningful community, cultivating friendship – to work, learn, play and worship together.

The headlines read: Meet the 80 year old bodybuilder - Amazing 91 year old gymnast - 72 year old cross-fit trainer - 58 year old pole vaulter breaks world record.

Building your support team for aging, part 3

In this third part of building your support team, we look at planning for your end-of-life decisions and the spiritual support you need to finish well as you seek to be faithful and obedient to the Lord until He calls you home. The good news for those of us who have spent time in the church is that the looking-forward theology of salvation, heaven and a personal relationship … [Read more...] about Building your support team for aging, part 3
