When We Forget God

Description

When We Forget God offers churches a compassionate, theologically grounded and immediately usable guide to dementia-friendly ministry. Revd Canon Dr Joshva Raja John integrates concise biblical and theological insight with practical tools leaders can put into action straight away. From worship that enables participation to pastoral visiting frameworks, safeguarding guidance, Dementia Friends–style training ideas, and community initiatives such as Memory Cafés, each chapter equips congregations to respond with confidence, clarity, and care. Case studies, reflective questions, and adaptable templates help teams move directly from reflection to practice. Hopeful, accessible and rooted in real parish experience, this book shows how Christian discipleship, belonging, and mission continue – and are often deepened – when memory changes.
