The Kids Are Grown and Gone - Now What?

How do things change once children have grown and moved out of the house? Scott Aniol discusses in this video how older women in a church have a unique opportunity to invest in younger women once their own children have grown up and moved out. He cites Titus chapter 2, which gives clear instructions for how older women should behave in the context of a local church.  Aniol encourages older women to set an example for younger women by being reverent, self-controlled, and godly and to be a source of encouragement and edification. However, he also warns that older women should be careful not to slip into gossip or busybodiness, but instead focus on being a ministry and service to younger women in a way that uplifts and builds them up. Titus 2:3-4 (NKJV) - "the older women likewise, that they be reverent in behavior, not slanderers, not given to much wine, teachers of good things— 4 that they admonish the young women to love their husbands, to love their children,"
