No Wrinkles on the Soul: A Book of Readings for Older Adults [Paperback]

Richard L. Morgan (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: May 1990

From "No Use Denying It" to "Keeping the Spirit Renewed," Morgan offers six themes in his best-selling book, which is now in larger print, that are on target for older adults. The 62 meditations in No Wrinkles on the Soul are ideal for individual or small-group devotions for those seeking to further develop their spiritual wisdom.

Each meditation presents a suggested scripture reading, a printed Bible verson, and a reading for reflection. These meditations relate honestly to the variety of situations in which older adults may find themselves living -- in their own home, in a retirement center, in a nursing home, or in the home of a relative.

5.0 out of 5 stars Timeless approach to aging as a spiritual journey, June 9, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: No Wrinkles on the Soul: A Book of Readings for Older Adults (Paperback)

This inspirational book published in 1991 by Richard L. Morgan is in its 5th edition & has been republished in the UK. Its appeal lies in the anthology of writings about aging as a spiritual journey, and the author's own insights as an aging person.

This is an excellent book for "seasoned" persons as well as others. It is an easy read and is very informative without being too wordy.
