Some are unnerving. But all are a part of God’s beautiful tapestry design for our lives. With excitement, humor, and warm-hearted understanding, Lois Mowday Rabey explores these peaks and valleys in Growing Young, inspiring us to laugh, reflect, and celebrate as we move through the surprising -- and truly glorious -- God-ordained changes of mid-life.

I already feel overwhelmed, I''m so busy. How can I do anything more? Thankfully, becoming a woman of a generous spirit is not about achieving an unattainable ideal or copying someone else’s behavior.

Discover how you can reach out in a natural way that ministers to others and also feeds your own soul in Women of a Generous Spirit.
