Congregations as Support Systems
by

This book discusses the patterns of
- spiritual development
- emotional development
that happen at midlife,
with practical suggestions for leaders
of congregations
- Jewish
- Christian
- Unitarian
who would like to do a better job serving their
members at midlife.
Only a small percentage of people have
a true midlife crisis, but the years between 35
and 55 are
often rich years of spiritual
growth, and congregations
could do a much better job nurturing that growth.
