Vesper Time: The Spiritual Practice of Growing Older

By Frank Cunningham

Book Overview

From a writer, editor, and publisher in his eighth decade, Vesper Time addresses the yearning among elders for continued growth, expansiveness of heart, improvement of mind, and a meaningful understanding of their lives. As with Christianity's age-old practice of Vespers, or evening prayer, Frank Cunningham views it is a time of life when colors deepen and our experience of aging becomes our spiritual practice. With humor and wisdom, he looks at five facets of this integral spirituality -memory, intimacy, diminishment, gratitude, and acceptance-offering guidance and encouragement for those who are on this stage in their journey of life.
