I give my highest endorsement to this much-needed book. Rarely do we find thinking this prophetic, original, scholarly, and biblical in one place. Josh Mulvihill has cut through our cultures views on grandparenting to give Christian grandparents a clear vision of their unique role in the next generations lives. I hope it will be widely read, discussed, and responded to in ways that change the very fabric of this country and the grandparenting culture.
Valerie Bell, CEO, Awana, and author of Faith- Shaped Kids
Josh Mulvihill is a great pioneer in grandparenting ministry from whom I have learned much. This book will inform you, but more than that, it will bless you and challenge you. If you are up for a challenge and want a clearer understanding of what God thinks about grandparenting, this book is a must read.
Cavin T. Harper, founder and president, the Christian Grandparenting Network, and author of Courageous Grandparenting

The church has assimilated the worlds perspective on senior adulthood and grandparentinga perspective that sees senior adulthood as a sort of second adolescence, filled with maximal freedom and minimal responsibility. Like the wealthy fool in one of the parables of Jesus, many senior adults have declared to themselves, You have plenty of goods stored up for many years; relax, eat, drink, celebrate! (Luke 12:19 NET ). But Scripture calls older adults to something far more significant than sailing into the sunset on a ship that is free from responsibilities to the next generation. According to the apostle Paul, older believers are called to train and to encourage younger believersa task that requires continuing growth and faithfulness in the local church (Titus 2:28).
This book is packed with solid biblical foundations and fresh empirical research. What Josh Mulvihill has provided here takes a significant step in the direction of developing a new vision for grandparents and senior adults in our churches. Read this work carefully, constantly seeking ways that your church might equip grandparents to be more effective as disciple-makers in the lives of their grandchildren and in the life of the local church.

I began a PhD degree in family ministry with the intention of doing my dissertation on family worship. While progressing through my coursework, I noticed a large void in the field of family ministry and became convinced that families and the church would benefit from a clear explanation of Gods design for grandparents. I spent four years studying grandparenthood in depth, and the results of my study are contained in the pages that follow.
