Look over these quick facts about the Baby Boomer generation - by Rev. Chris Holck • Born between the years of 1946 and 1964 • Approx. 78 million alive in 2005. In the 18 years prior to the Boomers, which are labeled the Builders, there were 49 million births • 11,000 Boomers turn 50 or 60 each day (one every seven seconds) which equals over 4 million each year • First Boomers eligible for Social Security in 2008 • First Boomers turn 65 in 2011 and the number of 65 and over will increase dramatically during the 2010-2030 period with twice as many 65 and over in 2030 than there were in 2000, growing from 35 million to 71.5 million and representing nearly 20 percent of the U.S. population • By the year 2025, Americans over 65 will outnumber teenagers by more than two to one [This is why your youth group isn't going to get the job done!] • The U.S. Census Bureau projects that the population 85 and over could grow from 5.3 million in 2006 to nearly 21 million by 2050 which is when the youngest Boomers will have turned 85 • Life expectancy during the twentieth century went from 48 to 78 years of age Second Half Christians is all about mobilizing the GREATEST generation to give the best half of their lives to completing the greatest task in the world: Finishing the task of the Great Commission of Matthew 28:18-19.
