WHY ELDERS?

Most works on elders are written for the pastor or church leader, but this volume speaks directly to the church member. Benjamin L. Merkle grounds this study about church elders in the Word of God as he clearly and succinctly informs laypeople of the scriptural qualifications and responsibilities of elders and deacons. Then he implores lay men and women to vote wisely concerning church leadership. "Why Elders] "assumes the voice of the curious church member who reads the Bible with an eye focused on the early church's organizational structure and asks, "Why did they do it the way they did]" and "How can we follow Scripture's prescription for leadership]"

Wolf At Twilight: An Indian Elders Journey through a Land Of Ghosts and Shadows

A note left on a car windshield, the death of an old dog, and the author finds himself back on the Lakota reservation where he traveled more than a decade before with the elder, Dan. The touching, funny, and unforgettable journey that ensues takes the reader deep into reservation boarding school mysteries, the dark confines of sweat lodges, and lonely Native homesteads far back in the Dakota hills. With characters including Dan's warrior-hearted friend, Grover, an odd little dog named Charles Bronson, and Big Orv, an elder who went to prison to protect his son, Nerburn's engrossing narrative evokes the Native American way of teaching and learning with a depth that few outsiders ever experience. "The Wolf at Twilight" offers a touching story that forever changes the way readers look at our country, our history, and the people who first inhabited this land.

The Making Of An Elder Culture: Reflections On The Future Of America?s Most Audacious Generation

The Summer of Love. Vietnam. Woodstock. These are the milestones of the baby boomer generation Theodore Roszak chronicled in his 1969 breakthrough book The Making of a Counter Culture. Part of an unprecedented longevity revolution, those boomers form the most educated, most socially conscientious, politically savvy older generation the world has ever seen. And they are preparing for Act Two?

The Making of an Elder Culture reminds the boomers of the creative role they once played in our society, and of the moral and intellectual resources they have to draw upon for radical transformation in their later years. Seeing the experience of aging as a revolution in consciousness, it predicts an "elder insurgency" where boomers return to take up what they left undone in their youth. Freed from competitive individualism, military-industrial bravado, and the careerist rat race, who better is there to forge a compassionate economy? Who better positioned not only to demand Social Security and Medicare for themselves, but to champion "Entitlements for Everyone"? Fusing the green, the gray and the just, Eldertown can be an achievable, truly sustainable future.

Part demographic study, part history; part critique and part appeal, Roszak''s take on the imminent transformation of our world is as wise as it is inspired -- and utterly appealing.

Look Me In The Eye: My Life With Aspergers

New York Times Bestseller


"As sweet and funny and sad and true and heartfelt a memoir as one could find."
-from the foreword by Augusten Burroughs


Ever since he was young, John Robison longed to connect with other people, but by the time he was a teenager, his odd habits-an inclination to blurt out non sequiturs, avoid eye contact, dismantle radios, and dig five-foot holes (and stick his younger brother, Augusten Burroughs, in them)-had earned him the label "social deviant." It was not until he was forty that he was diagnosed with a form of autism called Asperger's syndrome. That understanding transformed the way he saw himself-and the world. A born storyteller, Robison has written a moving, darkly funny memoir about a life that has taken him from developing exploding guitars for KISS to building a family of his own. It's a strange, sly, indelible account-sometimes alien yet always deeply human.
