[ 5. Journeying
through life ]
|
The old
prayerbook used to speak of “all sorts and conditions
of men” (and women!); how should we live as
Christians in different circumstances and stages of
life? What
does it mean to be an adolescent and a Christian?
How should a Christian spouse conduct
him/herself? Is
singleness a curse or a calling?
How do you cope with having 15 more working
years ahead of you but no energy or vision?
It will
take us many years to pass through all these stages,
but within one week any of us might encounter a child,
a single person and someone who has recently been
bereaved. How do we stand
alongside and offer love, grace, hope, truth:
whatever is needed in the
name of Christ?
|
So, the learning and
understanding agenda might look like:
- Being: a child, an adolescent, a young adult, married, single, a
parent, in mid-life, retired, bereaved, someone facing death
- Being alongside: a child, an adolescent, a young adult, a
married, a single, a parent, someone in mid-life, retired, bereaved, facing
death
