Description
The 5th Commandment
ECS Booklet
By: Sam Thorpe Jr.
No one enjoys thinking about growing old, yet it is an unavoidable journey that we all face. What’s your perspective and attitude about aging and death?
In this booklet, Sam Thorpe lays a foundation for biblical principles – first addressing the responsibilities of parents in training their children, before discussing the responsibilities of children to their aging parents, and the unique opportunities older people have to support and pray for succeeding generations.
This booklet is written for Christian families who desire to please God and put the timeless principles of His Word into practice.
