Morgan James’ new release, Finding Sanctuary in the Midst of Alzheimer’s: A Spiritual Guide for Families Facing Dementia, by Dr. Elizabeth Shulman, offers spiritual support for those caring for someone with dementia.
There are over sixteen million people caring for someone with dementia. Caregivers often endure stress and may struggle to find meaning in their role as a caregiver. This book addresses common challenges caregivers face using scripture and personal narratives. Done in a Bible study format with separate sections for spouses, adult children caring for a parent and those who want to provide support to a caregiver but don’t know how, Finding Sanctuary in the Midst of Alzheimer’s equips churches, senior living facilities and support groups with the tools to find hope and thrive as caregivers.
Caring for individuals with dementia requires patience, trust, and a willingness to meet their needs. Engaging with relevant scripture and listening to caregivers’ personal stories will empower participants in their caregiving journey, while offering respite and a sense of sanctuary from their caregiving challenges.
