Aging can become a difficult topic to talk about as we grow older. As author Jen Wilkin explains, anti-aging has become a game to win for men and a hazard to avoid for women. But what if we’re missing something good and meaningful in God’s design for every season of life? In a new episode of the Great Stories Podcast, join David Wollen and special guest Jen Wilkin for a conversation about what Scripture teaches us about growing older and learning to number our days with wisdom.
Dust to Dust: Aging Wisely in an Anti-Aging World
“So teach us to number our days that we may get a heart of wisdom” (Psalm 90:12, ESV).
What does that look like in real life?
In Dust to Dust, Jen Wilkin invites readers to see aging not as inevitable decline but as God’s good design. From body image to how we honor the elderly, she calls Christians to reject the world’s lies about aging and steward their days wisely. Written for any age, this book helps individuals and churches embrace each person’s worth as an image-bearer of God.
