            Changing Images of Aging and Generations 

Longevity of life, increased social mobility, change in the family structure, and an extended work career have dramatically affected the ministries of the local church. Church leaders find themselves at a crossroads of responding or reacting to these significant social changes. This course lays the necessary foundation for leaders to "rethink" and "rewire" their approaches in ministry with aging generations. Students can be expected to expand their vision as they create "new maps" for the extended life course as well as the linkage of generations.
