Grant and Tammy Ethridge have addressed a universal challenge that Baby Boomers have either experienced recently or going through now—becoming a parent to our parents.  One has to wonder why someone hasn’t addressed this before? They do it from first-hand experience and do it with compassion but a level of candor that makes it truly practical and encouraging.

Get this book! It either needs to be on your shelf for the future or to give to a friend in need. Most importantly, you may need to read thoroughly because caring for your parents is the chapter of life you have entered into. Resources on how to “Parent our Parents” are few and far between. Grant and Tammy leverage the transparency of their own lives and godly wisdom to bring hope to our journey. Let them lead you on the path they have walked of loving and caring for their parents well.

As my wife and I are in the stage of life in which we are parenting our parents, I cannot think of a book that would be more helpful for baby-boomers in this season of life. Grant and Tammy are two very caring, loving, open, and transparent people who share their heart and passion for honoring our parents in this final stage. On top of that, all they share is founded on their faith in Jesus Christ. This book will be a help to so many.

Grant and Tammy Ethridge are model parents and have a model marriage. They have both the credibility and the character to teach us how to continue to honor our parents when they need our care the most. I wish I’d had this book when my parents were still living.
