Non-Fiction / Self-Help / Health

Date Published: July 2, 2024

 

 

In this book Dr. Goldenthal presents the oldest years as a stage of life with special challenges and opportunities. This time of life is the culmination of many previous life stages when we have been confronted with important issues and choices. As an elderly person herself, Dr. Goldenthal discusses the concerns people are likely to have in the oldest years. She focuses on dealing as wisely as we can with these concerns and to accept what we cannot change. When we have done this to the best of our ability, we are then free to consider what gives us pleasure and what we value most in our lives.

• No prior experience necessary – Flexible hours
• Strong starting salary and benefits with good opportunities for advancement
• On the job training – Work at your own pace
• Must have basic computer skills

Through this job, Kerry takes a peek behind the curtain to see the price we all pay for the technology we use so freely. Are you ready to see what it is The Agency actually does?

About the Author

I grew up in the Midwest and went to a big state school known as much for their football team as anything else. I studied English Literature and History. It was there that I met my wife and we fell in love. We were married when I was in graduate school and during our first few years working after graduation, God showed us the opportunities to be involved in His work around the world.

Since 2000, we've lived outside of the United States, having many amazing experiences and meeting people from around the globe. My experiences traveling and my background in counseling are highly influential in my writing.
