Summary "Why shouldnt growing older be rewarding? Johann Christoph Arnold, whose books have helped over a million readers through lifes challenges, wants us to rediscover the spiritual riches that age has to offer. Now in his seventies, Arnold finds himself personally facing the trials that come with aging. But he knows, from decades of pastoral experience, what older people and their caregivers can do to make the most of the journey. In this book, he shares stories of people who, in growing older, have found both peace and purpose." - Publisher's description.
