Autumn Wisdom
A Book of Readings

by Richard L Morgan

A collection of 81 stories and words which describe the wisdom of older people. Drawn from the author's experience as a pastor, counselor and friend, and other wisdom teachers, the book makes good reading for older people or their adult children. As the boomer generation is aging and will face retirement soon, this would provide insights from what the Yoruba tribe in Nigeria call their older people, "wisdom people."

What Our Readers Say

"Most older people we have known may not have made the history books, but they have made the history - of our families, our churches, our communities, our nations. Richard Morgan teaches us to once again listen to the stories of our elders because they are our history, our real history. Morgan helps us see - through the stories and words of those best suited to offer useful answers - namely those who have already been there - that for Christians aging is an experience we do not have to confront alone."

Stephen Sapp, Dean of Religious Studies, University of Miami, Coral Gables, Florida
