Jen Wilkin joins us to talk about aging wisely in a culture that tells us to resist getting older at every turn. In her new book, Dust to Dust: Aging Wisely in an Anti-Aging World, Jen challenges the false stories we’ve absorbed about aging and invites us to see the entire arc of life through the lens of Scripture.
In this conversation, we talk about:
- The false story our culture tells us about aging
- How anti-aging messages shape the way we see ourselves—and the elderly
- The unique perspective of midlife
- Caring for our bodies without making the preservation of youth the goal
- What weakness can teach us about dependence on God
- Why older believers are indispensable to the church
- Learning to see growing older as a gift
- How to number our days and pursue wisdom in every season of life
Whether you’re in your twenties, navigating midlife, or well into your later years, this conversation offers a biblical and hopeful way to think about the age you are—and the days God has given you.
