Synopsis
Praise for Baby Boomers and Beyond "Amy Hanson does a brilliant job of reminding us that the most powerful and under-utilized source of Kingdom impact is the fifty-plus generation. I have seen firsthand how the mis- sion of Jesus offers them more fulfillment than retirement, golf, or the next sight-seeing trip ever could." Dave Ferguson, lead pastor, COMMUNITY / Movement Leader, NewThing "If you are fifty, or thinking about turning fifty; if you are concerned for the church and long for generations to be unleashed in ministry and community, then this book is the resource you have been looking for." John Ortberg, senior pastor, Menlo Park Presbyterian Church "In this powerful and impassioned book, Amy Hanson urges the church to better serve boomers so boomers can better serve others. Its simple and ingenious, revolutionary and reasonable, lofty and practical." Marc Freedman, author, Encore: Finding Work That Matters in the Second Half of Life , and CEO, Civic Ventures "Well-written, practical, and full of insight based on current research, Baby Boomers and Beyond opens our eyes and hearts to new ways to embrace older adults, for the benefit of the whole church and to the glory of God." Dr. Sue Edwards, assistant professor of Christian education, Dallas Theological Seminary, and author of four books on church leadership and the Sue Edwards Inductive Bible Study series "Amy Hanson reminds us of the work still to be done making disciples of an older genera- tion. I encourage you to find ways to lead boomers into a dynamic walk with Christ and engage them in the mission of Gods Kingdom." Ed Stetzer, president of LifeWay Research, www.edstetzer.com "The insights and strategies for ministry with boomers and older adults as detailed in this book are a must read for all church leaders seeking to be faithful to God and who want to be engaged in Kingdom building."
