THE HOPE OF GLORY is a devotional guide with 57 lessons for individuals over 65 and those leading weekly devotional hours for older adults in retirement homes, assisted living residences, skilled nursing facilities, senior centers, or Sunday school classes. The elderly in our society too often suffer from hopelessness, loneliness, and long days separated from the people they love and the communities in which they lived and worked. THE HOPE OF GLORY will give them eternal hope as it communicates the Gospel message and reminds them of who they are in God's eyes: not old and useless, but men and women created in His image who still have a life to live, a story to tell, and a future of eternal glory! For individual or group use. “With themes relevant to aging, THE HOPE OF GLORY will help older adults keep their eyes focused on God as they continue the journey through aging." –Missy Buchanan, Speaker and Author of MY STORY, MY SONG with Robin Roberts and Lucimarian Roberts, LIVING WITH PURPOSE IN A WORN-OUT BODY, and other books on aging and faith.

I've been a writer all of my life—at least since I wrote a poem for my mom when I was 8! I have a bachelor's degree in Journalism and a master's degree in English Education from the University of Tennessee. I worked in advertising early in my career, but then was a writer and manager for Current, Inc., for over 16 years. Since 1995 I have published six books and have a seventh completed. I've been married to my husband, Jim, since 1988 and we have four married children and 12 grandchildren in our blended family. I love to read and I'm in two book groups that meet regularly. Most of my volunteer time, my writing, and my speaking are now focused on older adults and those who care for them. While leading a Bible study at an assisted living facility, I wrote the lessons in my book, THE HOPE OF GLORY with volume two planned for 2021. I also enjoy travel,exercise, grandparenting, and spending time with friends.
