    Eternal Perspective On Aging

    In this deeply moving episode of Next Steps 4 Seniors: Conversations on Aging, host Wendy Jones is joined by life coach, speaker, and author Lori Pulliam to explore the eternal perspective on aging. Together, they challenge the cultural narrative that aging is decline—and instead reveal the spiritual truth: aging is preparation, not punishment. From biblical insights to personal reflections, Lori and Wendy talk about honor, presence, legacy, and the call to “be” rather than just do. They discuss why honoring our elders isn’t optional—it’s commanded—and how small acts of love and listening can transform someone’s final chapter into their most meaningful. If you’ve ever struggled with the idea of aging—or want to better support those who are—this is a conversation you won’t want to miss. Key Takeaways: Aging is not a sign of being forgotten—it’s preparation for eternity. The cultural obsession with youth distorts how we see value and worth. Honor is a commandment, not something earned. Presence is a gift: be with your loved ones, not just near them. Serving our seniors is both a privilege and a responsibility. Caring for aging parents is not a burden—it’s an opportunity to love well.       Learn more : https://nextsteps4seniors.com/ See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
