OSL Women of the ELCA
From Generation
to Generation
Jodie Nielsen
The generation groupings were determined by how the different age groups experience or experienced the world socially, economically, politically, and technologically. When we look at the changes each group has gone through and continues to go through, we gain a better insight and, perhaps, a newly found respect for these individuals.
The May Gather magazine focuses on the different generations, and the May devotion highlights some of the different intergenerational relationships found in the Bible.
May Devotional: “From Generation to Generation: Two-Way Blessings” by Christa Von Zychlin.
Focus Verse: “One generation shall laud your works to another, and shall declare your mighty acts.” Psalm 145:4
“Thank you for the rhythms of life. Guide us as we attend to the challenge and gift of intergenerational relationships. Strengthen us through your word of life today. Amen.” (Source: gathermagazine.org).
