Stuart Brisccoe along with his wife, Jill, a great example of a couple exalting His name together, remind us that our time on earth is short and whatever time we have left we can improve with age, so that when we meet the LORD we will hear, “Well done, My good and faithful servant.” Short Video. They presents a plan for us on how to number our remaining days because God’s purpose for us is not finished. (Eph:2:10)
Praise For Improving With Age
God has numbered our days and we’re still here because His purpose for us is not finished (Eph2:10). Stuart and Jill’s book Improving with Age will not only help you make the most of what’s left, it will make you want to hear God’s words, ‘Well done, My good and faithful servant.’ -Kay Arthur. Cofounder Precept Ministries International. Author teacher…and great admirer of Stuart and Jill.
Improving with Age is a timely reminder that those of us who are growing older are desperately needed in our families, our churches and society at large. Those w ho are retired from their vocations must realize that God has a future for them, not just in heaven but also on earth, even as they anticipate the challenges of old age…I hope many thousands read these pages and find that old age can be welcomed, knowing that God has meaningful tasks for us to do- Dr. Erwin W. Lutzer. Senior Pastor of The Moody Church, Chicago.
A few quotes from Improving With Age. God’s Plan for Getting Older and Better.
We must not fail to encourage and equip our aging saints to invest their mature years in vigorous ministries reaching out to their contemporaries who, after all, are the ones closest to eternity!
The church may have put old folks out to grass, but God hasn’t! Graze where you’re parked; bloom where you’re planted; play the hand you’re dealt.
A few personal notes from Jill
Call a Christian friend to talk
Take a walk outside in God’s creation and worship Him.
Listen to some worship music
Ask God to give you a waking thought each morning.
Do you know of someone who is sick in the hospital or worried about his or her health or about aging? Perhaps sending that person a card with a summary of your thoughts about renewal would encourage him or her.
