Whether you are a Baby Boomer or beyond, God can redeem your past and give you a purposeful future.

Fifty is the new forty, Sixty is the new fifty! People are living longer and healthier lives--and in the process, many strive desperately to stave off "middle age," let alone "maturity" or "old age." And yet reality is the great leveler, and the truth is that we are all "getting older."

David Roper knows the human heart, its joys and sorrows, its highs and lows. And once again he strikes a universal chord of understanding as he looks at the challenges each of us grapples with in middle age and beyond.

In Teach Us to Number Our Days, he takes you along on his own "journey to maturity," and gives ample evidence that God wastes nothing in our lives, not even our sins. He assures us that as we "come of age," we are not winding down, but taking the next sure step into a full and useful life. As we do, we can become ever more useful to God and to others.

So enjoy! he says. Enjoy your journey to maturity as you gain perspective on the past and hope for the future. Make the most of every moment of your life.
