Three Score Years Summary

Three Score Years: And Then? - Reaching Older People for Christ by Rhena Taylor

How to reach older people for Christ; This book sets out to provide and to provide resources for reaching our rapidly ageing population with the message of the gospel. The first half sets out the challenge. Many churches seem to regard efforts directed at older people as wasted energy. Rhena Taylor points out that not only are older people usually closer to the point of ultimate reality; our suburbs and residential homes are full of older people who do not know Christ, but whose need is as urgent as any child's. She then provides a series of excellent ideas for churches to use in creative evangelism with talks and suggestions for activities. Many churches offer 'Wednesday Afternoon Fellowship': she describes how these can be given a shot of adrenaline. Holidays may be too expensive or too taxing, so how about setting up a 'holiday at home'? Dramas for older audiences are much in demand, so six scripts are included. Many older people are quite shy and lonely: Rhena suggests dozens of coversations, openings, shared activities etc to break the ice and provide a basis for friendship. A chapter of testimonies makes very joyful reading.
