Jen Wilkin on Aging, Purpose, and the Church's Calling

Our culture spends billions trying to convince us that aging is something to fear—or even hide. But what if the Bible tells a very different story? Brian Fromm sits down with bestselling author and Bible teacher Jen Wilkin to discuss her new book, Dust to Dust: Aging Wisely in an Anti-Aging World. Together they explore how modern culture equates growing older with irrelevance, why Scripture presents aging as a gift rather than a curse, and how Christians can embrace every stage of life with purpose. Jen also shares how caring for her mother at the end of life reshaped her understanding of aging, why caregiving is central to the Christian life, and what churches must do now to prepare for America's rapidly aging population. Whether you're entering midlife, caring for aging parents, or leading a church, this conversation offers a hopeful, biblical perspective on growing older with wisdom, dignity, and faith.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
