“God’s grip on us, in the gospel, is much more important than our grasp of the gospel.”
Benjamin T. Mast, Second Forgetting: Remembering the Power of the Gospel during Alzheimer’s Disease

“For many reasons, the church at large has been absent in speaking about the struggle with Alzheimer’s disease. The psychological components of Alzheimer’s can frighten pastors and the general church body. After all, how can you minister to a person who doesn’t remember who you are, who doesn’t appear to understand what you’re saying? It hardly seems worth the time when they won’t even remember your visit. Many pastors feel ill-equipped to address the needs of people with dementia.”
Benjamin T. Mast, Second Forgetting: Remembering the Power of the Gospel during Alzheimer’s Disease

“When a person develops significant cognitive impairment much of their life seems to revolve around their disease. It begins to redefine their identity and seems to be the truest thing about them. Yet this is not biblical. Scripture tells us that all who trust in Christ — including those with Alzheimer’s — have a new identity. They are a new creation. They have value, regardless of their cognitive or intellectual ability. A spiritual community can remind us of this by treating us in ways that are consistent with this truth.”
Benjamin T. Mast, Second Forgetting: Remembering the Power of the Gospel during Alzheimer’s Disease
