Next Steps 4 Seniors: Conversations on Aging with Wendy Jones

Guilt can feel like it hooks into you and won’t let go, especially when you’re caring for an aging parent, navigating family conflict, or replaying old words you wish you could take back. Wendy Jones sits down with Pastor Tim Helland from Creekside Christian Church for a candid conversation about why guilt sticks, why forgiveness feels impossible on our own, and how faith gives us a path forward that’s both honest and freeing.We dig into Jesus’ words on the cross, “Father, forgive them,” and what it means to stop assuming the worst motives in the people who hurt us. Pastor Tim unpacks the story of the two thieves beside Jesus and the simple plea “Remember me,” connecting it to end of life fears, redemption, and the hope of grace. We also talk about forgiveness in the real world where consequences still matter, including what Pastor Tim sees week after week through jail ministry and what repentance can look like in hard places.Most importantly, we bring it back to caregiving and aging. If resentment is building, if you feel stuck in bitterness, or if you’re exhausted from doing the next right thing, we share practical language to use and a new way to see your role: caring for the vulnerable as an act of service with meaning.
