Though the shadow side of aging is a reality, author Missy Buchanan brings spirituallight and nourishment to people in the later years of life. Older adults struggle withchronic pain and diminished physical abilities. They contend with losses that pile up likethe dry bones in the prophet Ezekiel's vision-the loss of loved ones and friends, theloss of their home and belongings, the loss of independence, and the loss of purpose.In a culture that values youth more than age, older adults often feel forgotten andwithout purpose. Each chapter of From Dry Bones to Living Hope opens with an intimate, prayerfullament to God from the perspective of the older adult who longs for spiritual renewaland purpose. The authentic voice of lament establishes credibility with older readerswho yearn for others to empathize with their struggles. The second part of eachchapter, 'Cultivating Hope,' guides them to God's perspective on aging and specificactions they can take that lead to hope and joy.
