People in their fifties and sixties make a lot of plans for the future—retirement, vacations, family time, and the needs of aging parents. But how often do we give the same attention to preparing spiritually for the years ahead?
In Not Old, Not Young, Not Done: Following Jesus in Your 50s and 60s, Christopher Ash writes that these years are a pivotal season in the Christian life. He explains that “this point in our lives is often a fork in the road of discipleship; it may lead to decades of exceptional fruitfulness or develop into sadly wasted years.”
Written with warmth and compassion, Not Old, Not Young, Not Done explores the challenges of getting older, offering practical biblical guidance on empty-nesting, retirement, managing finances, and caring for elderly parents.
More importantly, the book explains how these transitions create new and exciting opportunities to minister to friends and family, grow in faith, and steward this season well. It also addresses the painful emotions that may accompany this time of life, including regret and bitterness, and offers pastoral counsel for navigating these hardships.
Whether you’re in your fifties or sixties yourself or walking alongside someone who is, Not Old, Not Young, Not Done provides a timely reminder that some of your most fruitful years of following Christ may still be ahead of you. You’ll be inspired to pursue faithful service, deeper discipleship, and a more joyful anticipation of Christ’s return.
