NEXT Steps introduces participants to theological, philosophical, and psychological concepts of vocation and aging. It is a gathering for adults contemplating or entering retirement, and for those who are recently retired. All program activities are designed to stimulate your individual self-discovery as you develop a personal plan for your new and meaningful chapter of life. NEXT Steps participants follow a 16-week process of self-discovery through readings, presentations, small group discussions, and discernment. All classes will meet via ZOOM. By the end of the course, participants will have developed a vision and a plan for their next phase of life; their elderhood.
On non-class weeks there will be a one-hour cohort discussion group, time and date to be determined by each cohort on the first day of class.
Scholarships Available.
Course leaders:
Beth Long-Higgins, Executive Director, Ruth Parker Center for Abundant Aging
Steve Lawler, Director of the Walker Leadership Institute at Eden Theological Seminary
