Abstract

Notes that the demographic predictions of dramatic increase in the number of elderly members of local congregations will change the focus and emphasis in pastoral ministry in the next millennium as the needs of the aging take precedence. Argues for a comprehensive, life-cycle approach to ministries with the aging that integrates theology and the behavioral sciences. Offers examples and practical methods for ministering more effectively to this important and growing population in the local church.
