Elderly Parents

“There’s no cookie-cutter approach to honoring aging parents. Most senior citizens say they’d like to stay in their own home as they age. When family members live nearby, simply picking up groceries and cutting the lawn may be all that’s needed. But the financial and logistical challenges increase as distance grows.” - TGC

“In 1 Timothy 5:8, Paul writes that anyone who does not provide for their relatives is ‘worse than an unbeliever.’ This passage isn’t about caring for children — it’s about widows and aging parents. The responsibility falls on family first, not the church or society.” - P&D
