"We need help in coming to terms with old age and learning how to handle it. And that is what we find in this book -- that and so much more." -- Alistair Begg, Foreword of A Good Old Age: An A to Z of Loving and Following the Lord Jesus in Later Years Praise for the Book Sinclair B. Ferguson, Theologian and Author of "The Whole Christ" "We all learned the alphabet when we were young. But here Derek Prime suggests there is another alphabet we need to learn if we are to enjoy A Good Old Age. With characteristic clarity and grace, he spells out an A to Z of biblical wisdom for the elderly. But the value of these pages goes far beyond encouraging senior-citizens. There is also something here for families, church leaders, and young people too. A great reminder that the starting place for A Good Old Age is long before it begins!" Christopher Ash, Writer-in-Residence at Tyndale House, Cambridge and Ministry Trainer at St. Andrew the Great church "There are gems of Christlike wisdom on every page of this lovely book, written by an older believer and pastor with a godly sweetness and earthy directness. I have loved reading it and look forward to reading it again, slowly, and probably more than once, if the Lord spares me into older and older age. I shall buy copies for ageing contemporaries, who need to read it too!" Colin S. Smith, Senior Pastor, The Orchard and President, Unlocking the Bible "Drawing on a lifetime immersed in God’s Word, Derek Prime gives us a roadmap for pursuing godliness in our later years. The value of this book lies in its specific application of the Scriptures to the challenges and opportunities of old age. Honest, insightful and full of grace, this book is a goldmine of wisdom for older believers."
