Book Review: Becoming Sage

Becoming Sage
Cultivating Meaning, Purpose, and Spirituality in Midlife
by Michelle Van Loon
Moody Publishers

Christian
Pub Date 07 Apr 2020



I am reviewing a copy of Becoming Sage through Moody Publishers and Netgalley:


In this book we are reminded that Maturity isn't a fixed destination but does in fact describe a growth in Christlikeness in every area of life, and through every season of life.


For generations many of us have learned to talk about Church as a destination.  But people growing in Spiritual Maturity realize that Church isn't meant to be a destination but a launch pad towards spiritual maturity, spiritual growth.


This book points out too that Becoming Sage means that we realize we in the body of Christ are not meant to grow alone.


The book points out too that Friendship isn't a reward for our discrimination, or a reward for finding one another out.  It is however the instrument in which God reveals beauty in others.


The author goes on to describe Becoming Sage is a journey away from the mirrors of other people’s perceived expectations about your life and toward the discovery of a true sense of purpose born out of communion with the One who created you.



Becoming Sage reminds us that the ministries geared towards those in the first half of life, atevimportant, more resources need to be placed into Ministeing to those in the second half of life.


I give Becoming Sage five out of five stars!



Happy Reading!
