The cover story, "Reverend Boomer: Aging and Spirituality" looks at the fastest growing segment of students at seminary school – the over-50 demographic. We'll discuss the connection between growing older and growing more spiritual. There will also be a segment on the value of yoga as an exercise for seniors, and a FAQ on long term care insurance.

“Aging and Spirituality” segment features Dr. Maxie Dunham, Pastor Emeritus of Christ Church Global; Rabbi Micah Greenstein, Senior Rabbi at Temple Israel; Dr. Daniel J. Earheart-Brown, President; Professor of Theology at Memphis Theological Seminary; Rev. Patt Hardaway, Christian Church (DOC); and Beverly Dorsey, first-year student at Memphis Theological Seminary.


The next edition (May 23) of The Best Times honors veterans, profiling the stories of five Mid-South veterans from WWII, Korea and Vietnam.
