Baby Boomers and Beyond - Amy Hanson
Baby Boomers – arguably the largest segment of the population – are entering their retirement years at an unprecedented rate. With more discretionary time and increased longevity, this group is searching for a way to make a meaningful impact with their lives. This video introduces the themes of Amy Hanson's book, Baby Boomers and Beyond, which explores the opportunities and challenges that the older adult population presents for the Christian community. Church leaders need to let go of stereotypes about aging and embrace a new paradigm, that older adults are for the most part active, healthy and capable of making significant contributions for the Kingdom of God.
