Aging in a Culture Obsessed with Youth

from TGC Podcast · host Jen Wilkin, Melissa Kruger, Vanessa Hawkins, Laura Wifler, Courtney Doctor

At a time when we typically live longer than any generation before us, it seems all we want to do is preserve our youth. From hair dye to microblading, antiaging creams to botox, we negotiate with age through products, surgeries, and even downright denial. But Scripture tells us that wisdom is with the aged and gray hair is a crown of glory—so why are we so age-averse? In this panel discussion recorded at TGCW24, Courtney Doctor, Vanessa Hawkins, Melissa Kruger, Laura Wifler, and Jen Wilkin talk why a biblical perspective on aging means we don’t have to fear the years.
